Cells from centre of tumours most likely to spread around body – study – The Irish News
Scientists hope their findings will lead to new treatment which could help block such migration.
Cells from different parts of kidney tumours behave differently and those within the centre are the most aggressive and have the highest chance of spreading around the body, a new study has found.
Cancers can spread to other parts of the body, with cells taking hold as secondary tumours, making the disease much harder to treat.
