title = "A cancer-specific response to suberolyanilide hydroxamic acid (saha) distinguishes MDA-MB-231 and MCF10A human breast cells in three dimensional (3-D) silicon microstructure arrays",
abstract = "We define a cancer-specific cytoarchitectural response to SAHA in human breast cells cultured on 3-D silicon micro-structure arrays. In contrast with non-malignant MCF10A breast cells, metastatic MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells conformed to the 3-D surfaces inside the isotropic microstructures. SAHA caused cytoskeletal reorganization only in the metastatic cells which was quantified by a significant increase in cell length and area. Metastatic cells produced suspension structures containing actin filaments that raised them above the substrate and enabled them to span the 3-D structures. This finding has application to the identification of a few invasive cells in an abnormal breast lesion.",
