Human 3D vascularized organotypic microfluidic assays to study breast cancer cell extravasation
Open accessAbstract
Significance: The cancer biology seed-and-soil paradigm recognizes the existence of organ-specific patterns of metastasization that drive the spread of selected primary tumors toward specific secondary loci. However, despite efforts to model the organotypic microenvironment, the organ specificity of cancer metastases needs to be elucidated. The relevance of this study lies in the generation of a human vascularized organ-specific microenvironment, which can be used to investigate and tune the extravasation process of metastatic tumor cells. Furthermore, beyond mimicking the pro- or antimetastatic signatures of different microenvironments, our microfluidic model provides insights into different properties of organ-specific endothelia. This study paves the way toward advanced in vitro models to screen for highly tailored organ-specific therapeutics and investigate key molecular pathways involved in organ-specific metastases.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
