Article Synopsis
- Lymphatic vessels serve as pathways for breast cancer cells to spread to other parts of the body, but how they interact with lymphatic endothelial cells is not well understood.
- Researchers created a model using human breast cancer cells and lymphatic endothelial cells to study how these cancer cells invade and escape into lymphatic structures over an extended period.
- Findings indicate that while tumor cells can infiltrate lymphatic vessels, the presence of lymphatic endothelium actually slows their movement, suggesting a protective role for these cells against tumor invasion.
