Similar to embryonic development, changes in cell phenotypes defined as an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) have been shown to play a role in the tumorigenic process. Although the first description of EMT in cancer was in cell cultures, evidence for its role in vivo is now widely reported but also actively debated.

RHOJ controls EMT-associated resistance to chemotherapy
RHOJ regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal-transition-associated resistance to chemotherapy by enhancing the response to replicative stress and activating the DNA damage response, enabling tumour cells to rapidly repair DNA lesions induced by chemotherapy.

The molecular mechanisms and therapeutic strategies of EMT in tumor progression and metastasis
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an essential process in normal embryonic development and tissue regeneration. However, aberrant reactivation of EMT is associated with malignant properties of tumor cells during cancer progression and metastasis,

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) or mesenchymal–epithelial transition (MET) plays critical roles in cancer metastasis. Recent studies, especially those based on single‐cell sequencing, have revealed that EMT is not a binary process, but a ...

Dynamic EMT: a multi‐tool for tumor progression
The process of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is fundamental for embryonic morphogenesis. Cells undergoing it lose epithelial characteristics and integrity, acquire mesenchymal features, and become motile.

A reciprocal repression between ZEB1 and members of the miR‐200 family promotes EMT and invasion in cancer cells [PDF]
The embryonic programme ‘epithelial–mesenchymal transition’ (EMT) is thought to promote malignant tumour progression. The transcriptional repressor zinc‐finger E‐box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) is a crucial inducer of EMT in various human tumours, and was ...

The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an essential event during cell development, in which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal fibroblast-like features including reduced intercellular adhesion and increased motility.

EMT and Anti-EMT Strategies in Cancer [PDF]
This article discusses the role of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) and addresses the scientific merits on epigenetic regulation of EMT. The importance of EMT as a prognostic biomarker is explored and the rationale on application of multitargeted epigenetic therapy is discussed. We describe a literature review of the epigenetic influence of such

Enhanced laser-driven proton acceleration using nanowire targets
Laser-driven proton acceleration is a growing field of interest in the high-power laser community. One of the big challenges related to the most routinely used laser-driven ion acceleration mechanism, Target-Normal Sheath Acceleration (TNSA), is to ...

Tumor Budding: The Name is EMT. Partial EMT. [PDF]
Tumor budding is a histological phenomenon encountered in various cancers, whereby individual malignant cells and/or small clusters of malignant cells are seen in the tumor stroma. Postulated to be mirror epithelial-mesenchymal transition, tumor budding has been associated with poor cancer outcomes.
