30 May 2018
Abstract excerpt
Osteopontin (OPN) has been shown to promote colorectal cancer (CRC) progression; however, the mechanism of OPN-induced CRC progression is largely unknown. In this study, we found that OPN overexpression led to enhanced anchorage-independent growth, cell migration and invasion in KRAS gene mutant cells but to a lesser extent in KRAS wild-type cells. OPN overexpression also induced PI3K signalling, expression of...
