A mechanobiological model of bone metastasis reveals that mechanical stimulation inhibits the pro-osteolytic effects of breast cancer cells

Summary: Bone is highly susceptible to cancer metastasis, and both tumor and bone cells enable tumor invasion through a “vicious cycle” of biochemical signaling. Tumor metastasis into bone also alters biophysical cues to both tumor and bone cells, which are highly sensitive to their mechanical envir...
