Functional proteomic screens reveal an essential extracellular role for hsp90 alpha in cancer cell invasiveness

TL;DR: Two functional screens for proteins required for the invasion of fibrosarcoma cells that identified the molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 are described, indicating that cell-impermeant anti-hsp90 drugs might decrease invasiveness without the concerns inherent in inhibiting intracellular hsp90.

CD155/PVR Plays a Key Role in Cell Motility During Tumor Cell Invasion and Migration

TL;DR: A functional proteomic screen has identified CD155 (the poliovirus receptor) as a mediator of tumor cell invasion through its role in migration and suggests that CD155 may contribute to tumorigenesis.
