Abstract
The main cause of a cancer patient’s death is the development of tumor metastases. Therefore, understanding of biological events of metastasization has a great clinical impact (1). A number of important steps in this process are mediated by the surface characteristics of tumor cells, particularly by surface glycoconjugate molecules (2,3,4).
