Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) identified a cellular pathway required for colorectal cancer cells to metastasize to the liver. The pathway promotes cancer cell growth and migration when the YAP1 protein, which helps regenerate tissue, is activated. The researchers said a drug that blocks ceramide production could offer a new way to prevent liver metastasis in patients with colorectal cancer.
