Lipoxin A4 ameliorates lipopolysaccharide-induced lung injury through stimulating epithelial proliferation, reducing epithelial cell apoptosis and inhibits epithelial–mesenchymal transition

Respiratory Research, 2019
Background Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by alveolar epithelial disruption. Lipoxins (LXs), as so-called “braking signals” of inflammation, are the first mediators identified to have dual anti-inflammatory and inflammatory ...

p63 attenuates epithelial to mesenchymal potential in an experimental prostate cell model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The transcription factor p63 is central for epithelial homeostasis and development. In our model of epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in human prostate cells, p63 was one of the most down-regulated transcription factors during EMT.

MicroRNAs regulate the epithelial–mesenchymal transition and influence breast cancer invasion and metastasis

Tumor Biology, 2017
MicroRNAs are small RNA molecules that play a major role in the post-transcriptional regulation of genes and influence the development, differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis of cells and the development and progression of tumors.

Epithelial Plasticity: A Common Theme in Embryonic and Cancer Cells [PDF]

, 2013
During embryonic development, many cells are born far from their final destination and must travel long distances. To become motile and invasive, embryonic epithelial cells undergo a process of mesenchymal conversion known as epithelial-to-mesenchymal ...

Form follows function: Morphological and immunohistological insights into epithelial–mesenchymal transition characteristics of tumor buds

Tumor Biology, 2017
In cancer biology, the architectural concept “form follows function” is reflected by cell morphology, migration, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition protein pattern. In vivo, features of epithelial–mesenchymal transition have been associated with tumor

MicroRNAs and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in prostate cancer. [PDF]

, 2016
Prostate cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of male cancer-related deaths. A significant fraction of prostate tumors are very aggressive, often metastasizing to bone, causing significant morbidity and mortality.

HR+HER2− breast cancers with growth factor receptor–mediated EMT have a poor prognosis and lapatinib downregulates EMT in MCF-7 cells

Tumor Biology, 2017
Despite an overall good prognosis, a significant proportion of patients with hormone receptor positive human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative breast cancers develop distant metastases.

The DNA methylation inhibitor 5-aza-2’-deoxycytidine retards cell growth and alters gene expression in canine mammary gland tumor cells [PDF]

, 2017
Disruption of gene expression by DNA methylation changes is widely involved in tumorigenesis. Here,to investigate DNA methylation changes in canine, we treated a canine mammary gland tumor cell line with a DNA methylation inhibitor, 5-aza-2 ...

The crosstalk between p38 and Akt signaling pathways orchestrates EMT by regulating SATB2 expression in NSCLC cells

Tumor Biology, 2017
Epithelial–mesenchymal transition is a crucial event for metastasis and could be mediated by several pathways such as phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt, mitogen-activated protein kinases, as well as many epigenetic regulators.

β2 adrenergic agonist suppresses eosinophil-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of bronchial epithelial cells

Respiratory Research, 2017
Background Epithelial-mesenchymal transition is currently recognized as an important mechanism for the increased number of myofibroblasts in cancer and fibrotic diseases.
