Journal ArticleDOI

Tumour exosome integrins determine organotropic metastasis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that exosomes from mouse and human lung-, liver- and brain-tropic tumour cells fuse preferentially with resident cells at their predicted destination, namely lung fibroblasts and epithelial cells, liver Kupffer cells and brain endothelial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

A multigenic program mediating breast cancer metastasis to bone.

TL;DR: Overexpression of this bone metastasis gene set is superimposed on a poor-prognosis gene expression signature already present in the parental breast cancer population, suggesting that metastasis requires a set of functions beyond those underlying the emergence of the primary tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI

The miR-200 family inhibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer cell migration by direct targeting of E-cadherin transcriptional repressors ZEB1 and ZEB2.

TL;DR: Loss of expression of the miR-200 family members may play a critical role in the repression of E-cadherin by ZEB1 and ZEB2 during EMT, thereby enhancing migration and invasion during cancer progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epithelial-mesenchymal transitions: twist in development and metastasis.

TL;DR: Yang et al. as mentioned in this paper linked EMT to the ability of breast cancer cells to enter the circulation and seed metastases and showed that EMT is vital for morphogenesis during embryonic development and is also implicated in the conversion of early stage tumors into invasive malignancies.
