- SisterMemberI saw that article, too but I don't quite understand it as they point out that the distinguishing thing about ILC is that it lacks E-cadherin but it metastasises, too.Sign in to react to this post
- arpieMemberVery Interesting! It sounds like they need to isolate that 'E-cadherin' & see if it stops the migration of cancer cells - and also see if it also spreads other cancers! Then they need to try & disable it (so long as it isn't an important building block of something else that maybe triggered by it's removal!) Which all just costs money!Sign in to react to this post
