The Role of Immunoglobulin Superfamily Cell Adhesion Molecules in Cancer Metastasis
Metastasis is a major clinical problem and results in a poor prognosis for most cancers.The metastatic pathway describes the process by which cancer cells give rise to a metastatic lesion in a new tissue or organ.It consists of interconnecting steps all of which must be successfully completed to result in a metastasis.Cell-cell adhesion is a key as
