Novel therapeutic strategies: targeting epithelial–mesenchymal transition in colorectal cancer

Abstract:

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process during which cells lose their epithelial characteristics, for instance apical–basal cell polarity and cell–cell contact, and gain mesenchymal properties, such as increased motility. In colorectal cancer, EMT has an important role in tumour progression, metastasis, and drug resistance. There has been accumulating evidence from preclinical and early clinical studies that show that EMT markers might serve as outcome predictors and potential th...
