Abstract excerpt
Acquisition of invasive characteristics is a hallmark of breast carcinoma progression. During this phenomenon, Ets-1 transcription factor overexpression is induced and associated with breast cancer invasiveness, and poor prognosis. We hypothesized that Ets-1 transcription factor could be the orchestrator of a genetic program inducing the expression of genes necessary for cell motility, as postulated by the tumor...
