Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]
The transition of epithelial cells to a mesenchymal phenotype is of paramount relevance for embryonic development and adult wound healing. During the past decade, the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been increasingly recognized to occur during the progression of various carcinomas such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

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]
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.

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

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.

The role of epithelial-to-mesenchymal plasticity in ovarian cancer progression and therapy resistance [PDF]
Ovarian cancer is the most lethal of all gynecologic malignancies and the eighth leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. The main reasons for this poor prognosis are late diagnosis; when the disease is already in an advanced stage ...

Tetraspanin in oncogenic epithelial-mesenchymal transition [PDF]
Members of the L6 family of membrane proteins, a branch of the tetraspanin superfamily, are overexpressed in tumor cells from many types of cancers. However, direct evidence of their oncogenic activity has not been previously shown. In this issue of the JCI, Lee et al.

Coupled Reversible and Irreversible Bistable Switches Underlying TGF-\beta-induced Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition [PDF]
Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays important roles in embryonic development, tissue regeneration and cancer metastasis. While several feedback loops have been shown to regulate EMT, it remains elusive how they coordinately modulate EMT ...
