Aerosol delivery of small hairpin osteopontin blocks pulmonary metastasis of breast cancer in mice. [PDF]
Metastasis to the lung may be the final step in the breast cancer-related morbidity. Conventional therapies such as chemotherapy and surgery are somewhat successful, however, metastasis-related breast cancer morbidity remains high. Thus, a novel approach
