Grant Activity:
Epithelial mechanics and the fate of cancer
Purpose:
Many common cancers originate in epithelial tissues, such as the breast, lung, colon and skin. All such cancers first begin as one cancer (transformed) cell within its epithelial tissue of origin, and these can be potentially eliminated by the epithelium to protect against cancer. This research proposal tests how abnormal function of the host epithelium can increase the risk of a newly-transformed cell being retained in the body to progress into a clinically significant tumor.
