Regulation of Transcription Factor Twist Expression by the DNA Architectural Protein High Mobility Group A2 during Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
13 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
Deciphering molecular mechanisms that control epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) contributes to our understanding of how tumor cells become invasive and competent for intravasation. We have established that transforming growth factor β activates Smad proteins, which induce expression of the embryonic factor high mobility group A2 (HMGA2), which causes mesenchymal transition. HMGA2 associates with Smad...
