Extensional Flow Microfluidics Reveal Size-Dependent Core-Shell Mechanical Heterogeneity in Pancreatic Tumor Spheroids

Understanding the mechanical behavior of cancer cell aggregates is important for investigating metastatic potential and developing effective therapeutics. Tumor cell clusters are major contributors to metastasis and can undergo extreme deformation to migrate through capillaries smaller than the cluster size, suggesting complex multicellular mechanics. Despite their clinical significance, the…
