Abstract
Invasion, uncontrolled proliferation, and often metastasis characterize malignant tumors. Benign tumors grow, but do not invade and do not metastasize. Research on the biology of minimal invasion tries to answer three questions: When do tumor cells start to invade? Which genetic alterations lead to acquisition of invasiveness? How do tumor cells invade?
