Abstract

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) describes the molecular reprogramming and phenotypic changes involved in the conversion of polarised immotile epithelial cells to motile mesenchymal cells. This process allows the remodelling of tissues during embryonic development and is implicated in the promotion of tumor invasion and metastasis. Several recent studies have identified the miR-200 family and miR-205 as key regulators of EMT and enforcers of the epithelial phenotype. The miR-200 family participates in a signalling network with the E-cadherin transcriptional repressors ZEB1/deltaEF1 and ZEB2/SIP1, and TGFbeta2 that is postulated to facilitate maintenance of stable epithelial or mesenchymal states but also allow reversible switching between these states in response to EMT effectors (such as TGFbeta). This review summarises these recent findings and their implications in both developmental EMT and tumor progression.

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.
