Title: Resistance of the embryonic notochord to invasion by malignant neurogenic tumor cells in vitro. Author: Schroyens W, Camon J, De Ridder L. Journal: Clin Exp Metastasis; 1991; 9(4):403-9. PubMed ID: 1868630. Abstract: Very few tissues in vivo are resistant to invasion by malignant cells.

The mechanism of resistance remains unclear.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
