Deskripsi

The visualisation of the bone metastasis process in a spatial temporal manner is lacking. Here, the authors use three-dimensional quantitative imaging and show that mouse mammary tumour cells preferentially home to endothelial subtype type H vessels within the bone marrow and remodel this vasculature by producing granulocyte-colony stimulating factor.
