Inhibition of AURKA kinase activity suppresses collective invasion in a microfluidic cell culture platform

Abstract Tumor local invasion is the first step of metastasis cascade which remains the key obstacle for cancer therapy. Collective cell migration plays a critical role in tumor invading into surrounding tissues. In vitro assays fail to assess collective invasion in a real time manner. Herein we aim...
