Abstract
This protocol is designed to quantify invadopodia formation and activity. Invadopodia are protrusive structures elaborated by cancer cells that mediate cell attachment and remodeling of the extracellular matrix. These structures contribute to the ability of cancer cells to invade and metastasize. In this protocol, both the presence of invadopodia and their activity is simultaneously assessed and quantified by a fluorescent microscopy-based assay.
Keywords: Cancer (癌症)
Invasion (入侵)
Invadopodia (侵袭性伪足)
