Publication Title:
CAM-Delam: An In Vivo Approach to Visualize and Quantify the Delamination and Invasion Capacity of Human Cancer Cells
Advanced BioMatrix Products Used:
PureCol® EZ Gel Type I Pre-Neutralized Collagen
How the products were used:
PureCol EZ Gel was used to prepare the human cancer cell lines for the CAM-Delam Assay.
Article Abstract:
We now present the in vivo CAM-Delam assay to visualize and quantify the ability of human cancer cells to delaminate and invade. Our results emphasize the usefulness of this assay for quantifying delamination capacity as a measurement of metastatic aggressiveness, and in unraveling the molecular mechanisms that regulate delamination, invasion, formation of micro-metastases and modulations of the tumor microenvironment.
