Acquisition of Chemoresistance and EMT Phenotype Is Linked with Activation of the Endothelin A Receptor Pathway in Ovarian Carcinoma Cells
10 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Emerging evidence suggests molecular and phenotypic association between chemoresistance and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer. Endothelin-1 (ET-1)/endothelin A receptor (ET(A)R) axis is implicated in the pathobiology of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) by driving tumor-promoting effects, including EMT. Here, we analyzed how ET(A)R regulates chemoresistance and EMT in EOC. EXPERIMENTAL...
