Recent evidence suggests that tumour cells may dynamically undergo an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) 8, resulting in diminished epithelial cell surface markers with a corresponding ...

This leads to EMT, with decreased expression of epithelial markers like E-cadherin," Sakamoto said. The authors also noted a concomitant increase in the mRNA expression of EMT markers Snail and Twist.

Researchers have provided a comprehensive profile of multiple epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers and to demonstrate that Snail and Twist, but not Slug, are the major inducers of EMT ...

A) Schematic outlining the process of FMT and EMT assays. B) Representative images showing the segmental analysis masks used for quantification of markers. Examples shown: α-smooth muscle actin ...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or primary liver cancer forms in the epithelial tissue of the liver and is most commonly caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV). In the U.S ...

the team found that both cell types underwent morphological changes similar to an EMT, and consistently upregulated the mRNA expression of mesenchymal markers and transcription factors involved in ...

Acquisition of mesenchymal markers during the epithelial–mesenchymal transition process may explain why certain CTCs are missed during epithelial marker-based assays. An ideal CTC detection ...

Researchers have discovered that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a role in damage in the eye after bone marrow transplantation. Researchers from the Keio University, School of ...
