Sp1 Is Required for Transforming Growth Factor-β–Induced Mesenchymal Transition and Migration in Pancreatic Cancer Cells
15 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
Transition from a sessile epithelial phenotype to a migrating mesenchymal phenotype is a crucial step in transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta)-induced pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion. These profound morphologic and functional alterations are associated with characteristic changes in TGF-beta-regulated gene expression, defined by rapid repression of epithelial markers and a strong and sustained...
