Deskripsi

Mechanisms governing adaptation of breast cancer to the brain metastatic microenvironment are unclear. Here, the authors use RNA-sequencing and Drosophila screening to identify Rab11b-mediated endosomal recycling as a unique mechanism for adaptation to a challenging metastatic microenvironment, which can be exploited by repurposing statins.
