The electrical resistance breakdown assay determines the role of proteinases in tumor cell invasion

The electrical resistance breakdown of the Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell monolayer provides a continuous assay system for cancer invasion that detects functional changes before morphological alterations. Ludwig et al address the question of whether physical contact between tumor cell and epi...

Zusammenfassung:The electrical resistance breakdown of the Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell monolayer provides a continuous assay system for cancer invasion that detects functional changes before morphological alterations. Ludwig et al address the question of whether physical contact between tumor cell and epithelial monolayer is a prerequisite for tumor cell invasion.
