Abstract The term “metastatic cascade” defines a process whereby few tumor cells complete a sequence of steps to leave the primary tumor to reach one or more sites elsewhere in the body, usually through the bloodstream to develop one or several metastases. Due to the nature and plasticity of cancer, unfortunately no specific and functional anti-metastatic drugs are available. In this Commentary, we are highlighting how four essential factors are able to induce adhesion-to-suspension transition (herein referred to as AST) in human cancer cells and how this process may play a key role in tumor metastasis. We further underlined the potential role of hematopoietic transcriptional regulators in reprogramming anchorage dependency of cells, supporting the possible targeting of AST factors as promising therapeutic strategy to overcome metastasis in solid tumor cells. |
