DEDD, a novel tumor repressor, reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition by activating selective autophagy

Abstract excerpt

Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from their primary location to other parts of the body. Metastatic cancer is responsible for most cancer deaths. Increasing evidence indicates that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a crucial developmental program, contributes to control cancer invasion and metastasis. We recently reported that death effector domain-containing DNA-binding protein (DEDD), a key...
