Key to this newly discovered process is GRP78, and it’s what’s known as a chaperone protein. One of the challenges in treating cancer is stopping it from metastasizing, and a new study reveals one of the fundamental mechanisms through which this happens. Now we know about this mechanism, perhaps we can stop it.
