Biology

The risk of tumor metastasis can be assessed by examining geneexpression, signal cascade activity, or protein expressions ofpathological sections. Imagine an adenoma (formed by epithelialcells, non-metastatic yet) next to mesenchymal stromal cells,indicate whether the following situations would promote or inhibitor N/D (not able to determine) the metastasis of the adenoma (usethose words).
