The CXCL5/CXCR2 axis is sufficient to promote breast cancer colonization during bone metastasis
Breast cancer cells often invade the bone tissue and remain dormant until they are induced to colonize the metastatic site. Here the authors develop an ex vivo co-culture system consisting of bone and cancer cells from mice and show that CXCL5 has a role in metastatic colonization in the bone.
