The viscosity of extracellular fluid is a key physical cue, but its impact on cell function and cancer-cell dissemination has remained largely unknown. Experiments in various systems reveal that ...

New research findings show how higher viscosity, or resistance to flow, of the extracellular fluid that surrounds cells enables cancer cells to migrate more rapidly from a primary tumor to other sites ...

When analyzing these pairs, researchers identified patterns between the extracellular and intracellular signals. They then trained a deep learning model to predict what the intracellular signals ...
