Journal ArticleDOI

EMT and Dissemination Precede Pancreatic Tumor Formation

TL;DR: It is suggested that inflammation enhances cancer progression in part by facilitating EMT and entry into the circulation and tagged cells invaded and entered the bloodstream unexpectedly early, before frank malignancy could be detected by rigorous histologic analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

EMT Subtype Influences Epithelial Plasticity and Mode of Cell Migration

TL;DR: Using a lineage-labeled mouse model of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to study EMT in vivo, it is found that most tumors lose their epithelial phenotype through an alternative program involving protein internalization rather than transcriptional repression, resulting in a "partial EMT" phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Robust cellular reprogramming occurs spontaneously during liver regeneration

TL;DR: It is reported that activation of Notch, a signaling pathway that mediates lineage segregation during liver development, is sufficient to reprogram hepatocytes into biliary epithelial cells (BECs) following injuries that provoke a biliary response.
