The role of epithelial–mesenchymal transition programming in invasion and metastasis: a clinical perspective
1 Jul 2013
Abstract excerpt
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is involved in normal developmental cellular processes, but it may also be co-opted by a subset of cancer cells, to enable them to invade and form metastases at distant sites. Several gene transcription factors regulate EMT, including Snail1, Snail2, Zeb1, Zeb2, and Twist; ongoing studies continue to identify and elucidate other drivers. Specific micro ribonucleic acids...
