In the late stages of cancer, cells break through normal tissue boundaries and metastasize (spread) to new sites in the body. How Do Cancer Cells Differ from Normal Cells? In normal cells ...

in mouse models of metastatic ovarian cancer, they found the same problem -- Transgelin 2 repression and impaired lipid uptake. Just like normal T cells in the tumor microenvironment, the ...
