Membrane Type 1 Matrix Metalloproteinase Induces Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition in Prostate Cancer
4 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
By mining DNA microarray data bases at GenBank, we identified up-regulation of membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) in human primary and metastatic prostate cancer specimens as compared with nonmalignant prostate tissues. To explore the role of up-regulated MT1-MMP in early stage cancer progression, we have employed a three-dimensional cell culture model. Minimally invasive human prostate cancer...
