More Details: McGovern et al. establish an orthotopic, humanized prostate cancer model to study bone metastasis. The authors demonstrate that a humanized tumor microenvironment (TME) influences the metastatic spread of cancer cells to tissue-engineered bone, highlighting the importance of the TME in prostate cancer metastasis to bone.
