Embracing Mechanobiology in Next Generation Organ-On-A-Chip Models of Bone Metastasis
Bone metastasis in breast cancer is associated with high mortality. Biomechanical cues presented by the extracellular matrix play a vital role in driving cancer metastasis. The lack of in vitro models that recapitulate the mechanical aspects of the in vivo microenvironment hinders the development of...
