    A novel in vitro model of metastasis supporting passive shedding hypothesis from murine pancreatic cancer Panc-02

    Cancer metastasis is believed to happen through active intravasation but there might be also another way to metastasize. According to passive shedding hypothesis, proposed by Munn et al., tumor cells detach fr...
