The data of establishing a three-dimensional culture system for in vitro recapitulation and mechanism exploration of tumor satellite formation during cancer cell transition [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2017 Tumor satellite formation is an indicator of cancer invasiveness and correlates with recurrence, metastasis, and poorer prognosis. By analyzing pathological specimens, tumor satellites formed at the tumor-host interface reflect the phenomena of ...

Satellite Formation around the Largest Asteroids
The Astrophysical Journal LettersSatellites around large asteroids are preferentially found among those with the most rapid rotation and elongated shape. The taxonomic statistics are similarly skewed; in total, 13 asteroids larger than 100 km are known to have satellites, but none have ...
