Cancer Metastasis: CXCR4 Cancer Metastasis: CXCR4
Posted by: CancerQuest

Video duration: 81 seconds

3D animation. Best viewed with anaglyph (red/green glasses). This animation shows the spread of cancer via blood vessels. In this case, the final destination is guided by signaling molecules that bind to the migrating cells. In the example shown, the signaling molecules are SDF-1 and the receptor is CXCR4. This is thought to occur in breast cancer and some other cancer types.
