Abstract Increasing data indicate that cancer cell migration is regulated by extracellular matrixes and their surrounding biochemical microenvironment, playing a crucial role in pathological processes such as tumor invasion and metastasis. However, conventional two-dimensional cell culture and animal models have limitations in studying the influence of tumor microenvironment on cancer cell migration. Fortunately, the further development of microfluidic technology has provided solutions for the study of such questions. We utilize microfluidic chip to build a random collagen fiber microenvironment (RFM) model and an oriented collagen fiber microenvironment (OFM) model that resemble early stage and late stage breast cancer microenvironments, respectively. By combining cell culture, biochemical concentration gradient construction, and microscopic imaging techniques, we investigate the impact of different collagen fiber biochemical microenvironments on the migration of breast cancer MDA-MB-231-RFP cells. The results show that MDA-MB-231-RFP cells migrate further in the OFM model compared to the RFM model, with significant differences observed. Furthermore, we establish concentration gradients of the anticancer drug paclitaxel in both the RFM and OFM models and find that paclitaxel significantly inhibits the migration of MDA-MB-231-RFP cells in the RFM model, with stronger inhibition on the high concentration side compared to the low concentration side. However, the inhibitory effect of paclitaxel on the migration of MDA-MB-231-RFP cells in the OFM model is weak. These findings suggest that the oriented collagen fiber microenvironment resembling the late-stage tumor microenvironment is more favorable for cancer cell migration and that the effectiveness of anticancer drugs is diminished. The RFM and OFM models constructed in this study not only provide a platform for studying the mechanism of cancer development, but also serve as a tool for the initial measurement of drug screening.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
