Hemodynamic shear stress stimulates migration and extravasation of tumor cells by elevating cellular oxidative level

Cancer cells are shed into the blood stream and are exposed to hemodynamic shear stress during metastasis. It has been shown that shear stress can destroy circulating tumor cells (CTCs) both in vitro and in vivo. However, it remains unclear whether shear stress can modulate the properties and functi...
