Abstract:
:The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a major role in cancer progression through its increased deposition and alignment. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Fattet et al. reveal a pathway in which ECM stiffness promotes EPHA2/LYN complex activation, leading to TWIST1 nuclear localization and triggering EMT in breast cancer.
