Brief description The majority of deaths from cancer are due to metastasis, which is the formation of secondary tumours at sites remote from the primary tumour. Metastasis involves conversion of some tumour cells to an invasive, migratory form in a process that is controlled by small genetic regulators known as microRNAs. In this project we will conduct experiments aimed to provide a proof of principle demonstration in mice that microRNAs can be used to block the formation of metastases.
