The Spemann organizer gene, <i>Goosecoid</i> , promotes tumor metastasis
The process of invasion and metastasis during tumor progression is often reminiscent of cell migration events occurring during embryonic development. We hypothesized that genes ...
Epithelial–mesenchymal transitions: A mesodermal cell strategy for evolutive innovation in Metazoans
Abstract Epithelial–mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) are well known processes in which new mesenchyme is locally generated from epithelia. During the development of the vertebrate...
Early events in cell adhesion and polarity during epithelial-mesenchymal transition
During evolution from primitive species, a mechanism, termed epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), was established to create mesenchymal cells from a pre-existing epithelial ...
Origin and organization of the zebrafish fate map
Abstract We have analyzed lineages of cells labeled by intracellular injection of tracer dye during early zebrafish development to learn when cells become allocated to particula...
Epithelial-mesenchymal transitions: the importance of changing cell state in development and disease
The events that convert adherent epithelial cells into individual migratory cells that can invade the extracellular matrix are known collectively as epithelial-mesenchymal trans...
