Putative oncogene Brachyury ( T ) is essential to specify cell fate but dispensable for notochord progenitor proliferation and EMT
22 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
The transcription factor Brachyury (T) gene is expressed throughout primary mesoderm (primitive streak and notochord) during early embryonic development and has been strongly implicated in the genesis of chordoma, a sarcoma of notochord cell origin. Additionally, T expression has been found in and proposed to play a role in promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in various other types of human tumors....
