Up-regulation of syncytin-1 contributes to TNF-α-enhanced fusion between OSCC and HUVECs partly via Wnt/β-catenin-dependent pathway
23 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Accumulating evidence implies that cell fusion is one of the driving forces of cancer invasion and metastasis. However, considerably less is still known about the triggering factors and underlying mechanisms associated with cancer-host cell fusion, particularly in inflammatory tumor microenvironment. In this study, we confirmed that inflammatory factor TNF-α could enhance fusion between squamous cell carcinoma...
