Study reveals first evidence inherited genetics can drive cancer's spread
When researchers analyzed the immune cells in the tumors and grouped them by type, they found more cancer-fighting cells in mice with ApoE4. Credit: Elizabeth and Vincent Meyer Laboratory of Systems Cancer Biology at The Rockefeller University

Sometimes cancer stays put, but often it metastasizes, spreading to new locations in the body. It has long been suspected that genetic mutations arising inside tumor cells drive this potentially devastating turn of events.
