Tumors metastasize by way of a complex series of sequential steps involving the growth and invasion of malignant cells at primary sites, their penetration into lymphatits, blood circulation and body cavities, transport to distant sites, implantation at these sites, and invasion and growth (Fig. 1). Often metastasis can occur to selective secondary sites that would be unexpected on the basis of mechanical considerations or circulatory or lymphatic patterns [11. Such findings have intrigued researchers and have stimulated research into the molecular events underlying the spread of malignant cells to particular sites.
