Tumor Microenvironmental Signaling Elicits Epithelial-Mesenchymal Plasticity through Cooperation with Transforming Genetic Events
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) facilitates the escape of epithelial cancer cells from the primary tumor site, which is a key event early in metastasis. Here, we explore how extrinsic, tumor microenvironmental cytokines cooperate with intrinsic, genetic changes to promote EMT in human ma...
