title: Will differential culturing of circulating human lung cancer cells aid in understanding metastasis?
abstract: It is thought that there is need to resolve the incompatibilities present in current concepts of cancer metastasis. In presenting as many as 10 such anomalies in lung cancer dissemination in this Journal, my explanatory hypothesis rested on the contradistinctive status of the blood-borne and lymph-borne lung cancer cell (LCC). Perhaps, researches slanted towards differential culturing of these two circulating cells will open avenues for advancing the bioscience of cell transportation in human cancer metastasis.
