The atypical chemokine receptor Ackr2 constrains NK cell migratory activity and promotes metastasis [PDF]
Chemokines have been shown to be essential players in a range of cancer contexts. In this study, we demonstrate that mice deficient in the atypical chemokine receptor Ackr2 display impaired development of metastasis in vivo in both cell line and ...

Prostaglandin Regulation Promotes Lymphatic Metastasis [PDF]
Abstract Major finding: VEGF-D–induced collecting lymphatic vessel (CLV) dilation promotes metastasis. Mechanism: VEGF signaling increases circulating prostaglandin levels. Impact: Inhibition of CLV dilation may represent an anti-metastatic therapeutic strategy.

Integrin-Mediated Macrophage Adhesion Promotes Lymphovascular Dissemination in Breast Cancer
Summary: Lymphatic vasculature is crucial for metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, cellular and molecular drivers controlling lymphovascular metastasis are poorly understood. We define a macrophage-dependent signaling cascade that

Exosomal long noncoding RNA LNMAT2 promotes lymphatic metastasis in bladder cancer.
Patients with bladder cancer (BCa) with clinical lymph node (LN) metastasis have extremely poor prognosis. VEGF-C has been demonstrated to play vital roles in LN metastasis in BCa.

HE4 tumor marker as a predictive factor for lymphatic metastasis in endometrial cancer
Endometrial cancer is the most common genital cancer in high‐resource countries. Treatment is essentially surgical, but the role of lymphadenectomy in the treatment of low‐stage and low‐grade tumors has not been defined.
