Deskripsi

The ability to visualise stochastic invasion events is limited in murine models of metastatic cancers. Here the authors use a transparent zebrafish epidermis model to follow the invasion events of K-Ras transformed epithelial cells and show that these cells invade through basal cell extrusion.
