Twist Overexpression Induces <i>In vivo</i> Angiogenesis and Correlates with Chromosomal Instability in Breast Cancer
1 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
Aggressive cancer phenotypes are a manifestation of many different genetic alterations that promote rapid proliferation and metastasis. In this study, we show that stable overexpression of Twist in a breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, altered its morphology to a fibroblastic-like phenotype, which exhibited protein markers representative of a mesenchymal transformation. In addition, it was observed that MCF-7/Twist...
