Mechanical Signals Inhibit Growth of a Grafted Tumor In Vivo: Proof of Concept.

In the past ten years, many studies have shown that malignant tissue has been "normalized" in vitro using mechanical signals. We apply the principles of physical oncology (or mechanobiology) in vivo to show the effect of a "constraint field" on tumor growth. The human breast canc...
