Match:
( ) The ability to degrade the extracellular matrix and basal membrane in order to migrate throughout normal tissue, enter and exit vessels, and colonize a new site in the body.
( )Altering growth factors, receptors, signaling cascades, and transcription factors in order to stimulate the expression of growth promoting genes and the cell cycle.
