Role of constitutive behavior and tumor-host mechanical interactions in the state of stress and growth of solid tumors
(2014)Mechanical forces play a crucial role in tumor patho-physiology. Compression of cancer cells inhibits their proliferation rate, induces apoptosis and enhances their invasive and metastatic potential. Additionally, compression ...
