Popis: | In this study, we explored the relation between metastatic states vs the capacity of confined migration, amoeboid transition, and cellular stiffness. We compared across an isogenic panel of human breast cancer cells derived from MDA-MB-231 cells. It was observed that cells after lung metastasis have the fastest migration and lowest stiffness, with a significantly higher capacity to transition into an amoeboid mode. Our findings illustrate that metastasis is a selective process favoring motile and softer cells. Moreover, the observation that circulating tumor cells resemble the parental cell line, but not lung-metastatic cells, suggests that cells with higher deformability and motility are likely selected during extravasation and colonization. |
