Mechanisms Governing Mesothelial Clearance by Ovarian Cancer Spheroids
Metastatic dissemination of ovarian tumors involves the invasion of multi-cellular tumor cell clusters into the mesothelial cell lining of organs in the peritoneal cavity. We developed an in vitro assay that models this initial step of ovarian cancer metastasis to investigate the mechanisms of invas...
