Introduction: To investigate the expression of EPLIN-α, epithelial protein lost in neoplasm, in human breast cancer tissues/cells and investigate the cellular impact of EPLIN-α on breast cancer cells.
The loss of endogenous BMP-7 from prostate cancer cells is associated with increased invasiveness and motility, which appears to be facilitated by changes in the level of the BMP antagonists noggin and follistatin. Endogenous BMP-7 has an important role in controlling noggin and follistatin expression.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
