Gilardi M, Bersini S, Calleja A, Kamm R, Vanoni M, Moretti M
Thromb Res . 2016 May; 140 Suppl 1:S180-1. PMID: 27161700
Introduction: Metastases are responsible for more than 90% of cancer related mortality. The hematogenous metastatic invasion is a complex process in which the endothelium plays a key role. Extravasation is...

Pavesi A, Tan A, Chen M, Adriani G, Bertoletti A, Kamm R
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc . 2016 Jan; 2015:1853-6. PMID: 26736642
Understanding the mechanism of tumor cell extravasation, cell migration and the role of the immunosystem is crucial in creating targeted and patient-specific cancer therapies. We created an in-vitro microfluidic cell...

Bersini S, Jeon J, Moretti M, Kamm R
Drug Discov Today . 2013 Dec; 19(6):735-42. PMID: 24361339
A crucial event in the metastatic cascade is the extravasation of circulating cancer cells from blood capillaries to the surrounding tissues. The past 5 years have been characterized by a...

Borau C, Kamm R, Garcia-Aznar J
Phys Biol . 2011 Nov; 8(6):066008. PMID: 22120116
Cell migration is essential for tissue development in different physiological and pathological conditions. It is a complex process orchestrated by chemistry, biological factors, microstructure and surrounding mechanical properties. Focusing on...
