Daxx inhibits hypoxia-induced lung cancer cell metastasis by suppressing the HIF-1α/HDAC1/Slug axis

Hypoxia and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition promotes cancer metastasis. Here the authors show that Daxx inhibits hypoxia-induced lung cancer metastasis by attenuating Slug-mediated transcriptional repression of epithelial-like markers that in turn cause cells to exhibit low invasiveness.
