Epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition transcription factors in cancer‐associated fibroblasts
Open accessAbstract
Beyond inducing epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transcription (EMT), transcriptional factors of the Snail, ZEB and Twist families (EMT‐TF s) control global plasticity programmes affecting cell stemness and fate. Literature addressing the reactivation of these factors in adult tumour cells is very extensive, as they enable cancer cell plasticity and fuel both tumour initiation and metastatic spread. Incipient data reveal that EMT‐TF s are also expressed in fibroblasts, providing these with additional properties. Here, I will review recent reports on the expression of EMT‐TF s in cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAF s). The new model suggests that EMT‐TF s can be envisioned as essential metastasis and chemoresistance‐promoting molecules, thereby enabling coordinated plasticity programmes in parenchyma and stroma–tumour compartments.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
