It is extremely invasive; the mechanisms that govern invasion are not well understood. To better understand the process of invasion, we conducted an in vitro experiment in which a 3d tumour spheroid is implanted into a collagen gel. The paths of individual invasive cells were tracked. These cells were modeled as radially biased, persistent random walkers. The radial velocity bias was found to be 20 microns/hr on day one, but decayed significantly by day two. The cause of this bias is thought to be due to chemotactic factors and contact guidance along collagen fibers.Cell BehaviorDirectionality of glioblastoma invasion in a 3d in vitro experimenttext
