The epithelial-mesenchymal transcription factor <i>SNAI1</i> represses transcription of the tumor suppressor miRNA <i>let-7</i> in cancer
2020-11-05
Abstract excerpt
We aimed to determine the mechanism of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-induced stemness in cancer cells. Cancer relapse and metastasis are caused by rare stem-like cells within tumors. Studies of stem cell reprogramming have linked let-7 repression and acquisition of stemness with the EMT factor, SNAI1 . The mechanisms for the loss of let-7 in cancer cells are incompletely understood. In four carcinoma...
