Abstract 2080: Plasma membrane fluidity drives metastasis in breast cancer

New therapeutic targets that can inhibit cancer metastasis are desperately needed. To address this issue, we have leveraged a computational approach and performed an unbiased screen for therapies that can inhibit an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) gene expression profile, a phenotype that is believed to promote metastases. This yielded predictions of drugs that can both promote and inhibit an EMT transcriptional profile. Following up...
