Pressure and stressSolid stress: Mechanical forces exerted by non-fluid components accumulated within tumours- growth-induced stress remain after resection
- externally applied stress due to surrounding tissueFluid stress: - microvascular pressure (MVP) shear stress- interstitial fluid pressure (IFP)

Cell migration
ECM component orientation critical for migration direction
Migration along reassembled collagen fiber highways
Outwardly radiating collagen fiber patterns are observed in vivo and promote invasive behaviour
