PAI-1-Dependent Inactivation of SMAD4-Modulated Junction and Adhesion Complex in Obese Endometrial Cancer
1 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
While plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is known to potentiate cellular migration via proteolytic regulation, this adipokine is implicated as an oncogenic ligand in the tumor microenvironment. To understand the underlying paracrine mechanism, here, we conduct transcriptomic analysis of 1,898 endometrial epithelial cells (EECs) exposed and unexposed to PAI-1-secreting adipose stromal cells. The...
