EMT associated transcription factors Slug and Snail demonstrate specific expression patterns in breast cancer subtypes, involving tumor or stroma components and correlating with proliferation status and complex clinical prognosis

2026-06-02

Abstract excerpt

EMT associated transcription factors (EMTaTF) controls the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, but their detailed expression pattern in cancer is poorly documented at the cellular level. Here, we located two major EMTaTF: Snail and Slug by immunochemistry using validated antibodies in a cohort of 569 invasive breast carcinomas. We screened all tumor molecular types using TMA analysis in addition to fu...
