IGF-I Induces Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition via the IGF-IR‐Src‐MicroRNA-30a‐E-Cadherin Pathway in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cells
10 Aug 2016
Abstract excerpt
Recurrence and distant metastasis are the most common cause of therapeutic failure in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) can induce epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in many epithelial tumors; however, whether IGF-I can enhance NPC metastasis by EMT and the mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we have identified that IGF-I could induce EMT and enhance migration...
