“…However, overexpression of eIF4E not only induces the transformation and tumorgenesis, but also initiates metastasis (De Benedetti and Graff, 2004). Overexpression of eIF4E is sufficient to develop the transformation of fibroblasts and primary epithelial cells (Avdulov et al, 2004). In a clinical trial, eIF4E overexpression indicates to increase cancer susceptibility because eIF4E transgenic mice develop lymphomas, angiosarcomas, lung carcinomas, and hepatomas (Ruggero et al, 2004).…”
