Melanoma cells undergo aggressive coalescence in a 3D Matrigel model that is repressed by anti-CD44.

Using unique computer-assisted 3D reconstruction software, it was previously demonstrated that tumorigenic cell lines derived from breast tumors, when seeded in a 3D Matrigel model, grew as clonal aggregates which, after approximately 100 hours, underwent coalescence mediated by specialized cells, e...
