“…Our group reported that selected PCBs can activate endothelial cells, disrupt endothelial monolayers, and stimulate both extravasation and transmigration of the cancer cells (Toborek et al, 1995;Choi et al, 2003;Eum et al, 2004;Eum et al, 2006a;Eum et al, 2006b). Several signal transduction pathways, such as the PI3K, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and Janus kinase 3 (JAK3), and c-Src kinase signaling pathways appear to be involved at different stages of these effects (Eum et al, 2006a;Eum et al, 2006b). Based on these observations, we hypothesize that PCBs can not only induce carcinogenic effects, but also contribute to the development of cancer metastases.…”
