Distant metastases are commonly observed in patients of osteosarcoma with the estimation of about 85% after surgery. Mostly they occur in lungs however it may also metastasizes to other bone and soft tissues. Osteosarcoma is lethal because of pulmonary metastasis with widespread progression that leads to respiratory failure. Tumor invasion and metastasis is multistep complex process in which tumor cells alter cell–extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions at the primary tumor site to invade adjacent
