TGF-β signaling and epithelial–mesenchymal transition in cancer progression
28 Nov 2012
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: TGF-β acts as a potent driver of cancer progression through the induction of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), in which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal phenotype, leading to enhanced motility and invasion. Recent reports highlight the fundamental roles of TGF-β-induced EMT in multiple aspects of cancer progression. In this review, we focus on the novel insights into the roles of...
