👉 Chemiotropism, also known as chemoproliferation, is a biological process that involves the stimulation of proliferation and cell division in cancer cells. It is characterized by the exchange of ions between an inside membrane (the cytoskeleton) of a cell and an outside plasma membrane called the extracellular matrix (ECM). This interaction leads to changes in cellular morphology, such as cell size, shape, and movement. Chemiotropism can occur through various mechanisms, including: 1.
