N2 - Considerable evidence suggests that only a small subset of tumor-initiating cells (TICs) drive tumor formation and metastasis, and those cells have a strong correlation with cell motility. To enrich those TICs, we developed a high-throughput cell migration platform which enables: (1) integration of up to 5,000 migratory channels per device, (2) automatic image collection and analysis, and (3) reliable cell retrieval. Using this platform, we have retrieved highly motile cells for whole transcriptome analysis (mRNA Next Generation Sequencing) and in-vivo validation. Based on sequencing results, we identified the regulating pathways to inhibit cancer cell migration.
