Abstract

Collectively our data support the notion that neutrophils sustain fundamental survival and stemness abilities, thereby contributing to metastasis. Targeting the identified neutrophil signals in the context of metastatic disease opens promising opportunities for novel anti-tumour therapeutic strategies.
