ILK Expression in Colorectal Cancer Is Associated with EMT, Cancer Stem Cell Markers and Chemoresistance
10 Mar 2018
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIM: Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer stem cells (CSC) are critically implicated in cancer metastasis and chemoresistance. Herein, we investigated integrin-linked kinase (ILK)'s role in human colon cancer (CRC) progression and chemoresistance in relation to EMT and CSC markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Expression of ILK, EMT and CSC markers were evaluated by immunohistochemistry in 149...
