Pediatric cancer remains the leading cause of disease-related death among children aged 1–14 years. A few risk factors have been conclusively identified, including exposure to pesticides, high-dose radiation, and specific genetic syndromes, but the ...

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 ...

Decoding the dual role of autophagy in cancer through transcriptional and epigenetic regulation
Transcriptional and epigenetic regulation controls autophagy, which exerts context‐dependent effects on cancer: Autophagy suppresses tumorigenesis by maintaining cellular homeostasis or promotes tumor progression by supporting survival under stress. In this “In a Nutshell” article, we explore the intricate mechanisms of the dual function of autophagy ...

Targeting epithelial–mesenchymal transition [PDF]
The epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process in which epithelial cells dedifferentiate to become mesenchymal cells [1–3]. The process requires them to lose their cell polarity, to relinquish their cell–cell adhesion, and to gain migratory and invasive properties.

Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in tumor microenvironment [PDF]
Abstract The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays crucial roles in the formation of the body plan and also in the tumor invasion process. In addition, EMT also causes disruption of cell-cell adherence, loss of apico-basal polarity, matrix remodeling, increased motility and invasiveness in promoting tumor metastasis.

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

TGF-beta 1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and therapeutic intervention in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Background/Aims: Epithelial-to-mesenchymal cell transformation (EMT) is the trans-differentiation of tubular epithelial cells into myofibroblasts, an event underlying progressive chronic kidney disease in diabetes, resulting in fibrosis.

Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...
