Plexin-B2 facilitates glioblastoma infiltration by modulating cell biomechanics
Huang et al demonstrate that glioblastoma cells upregulate axon guidance molecule Plexin-B2 to gain invasiveness and that Plexin-B2 promotes glioblastoma cell infiltration along axon fiber tracts in intracranial transplant models by modulating cellular biomechanics.
