Researchers at Karolinska Institutet, led by Dr. Helin Norberg and Dr. Erik Norberg, have identified a previously unknown mechanism that affects the ability of cancer cells to spread in the body. The ...

“This work provides important mechanistic insights, including the role of the EMT, into the evolution of therapeutic resistance in cancer cells,” said Beverly Emerson, a molecular biologist at Oregon ...

For cancer cells to spread, a group of cells must work together to invade new tissues. This process is called Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT). During EMT, cancer cells change and become ...

NYU scientists have discovered that cancer cells work together to withstand challenging conditions, revealing new ...

Our work provided a conceptual understanding depicting a causal role for RNA alternative splicing in EMT and breast cancer recurrence. We found that splice isoform switching of the CD44 gene must take ...
