Popis: Todd et al employ a PyMT-driven spontaneous murine mammary carcinoma model with mammary-specific deletion of hypoxia inducible factors Hif1α, Hif2α, or von Hippel-Lindau factor to further investigate their role in bone and lung metastasis. They find that HIF signaling in breast tumours controls tumour dissemination in a site-specific manner, which could inform the development of therapies targeting metastasis.
