This project investigates the interactions between cancer cells and bone tissue, particularly focusing on dormant cancer cells that can reactivate and cause metastasis. By studying these interactions, the project aims to identify new therapeutic targets to prevent cancer spread.
While cancer survival rates have improved significantly in recent years, survival decreases dramatically after tumour metastasis.
One of the most common sites for metastatic tumours to develop is bone.
Intriguingly, evidence suggests that once they have invaded the bone marrow, individual metastatic cancer cells can persist for years in a quiescent or “dormant” state, and are resistant to both radiation and chemotherapy treatment.
These dormant cells can reside for months or years while the canc…
