Abstract:Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a fatal disease with poor prognosis. The predominant reason for ESCC-related death is metastasis caused by tumor cell invasion. Human MENA protein is a member of Ena/Vasp family, which plays a critical role during tumor cell invasion. However, the biological effect of MENA in ESCC cell lines remains unclear Methods: In this study, fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were conducted to detect the mRNA expression of MENA in tumor and para-cance… Show more
