Abstract:Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is related to malignancy and metastasis in cancer. The molecular networks including tyrosine kinases are altered in gastric cancer (GC). This study aims to reveal the role of ERBBs (erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinases) in EMT, and generate the molecular network pathway of ERBBs in diffusetype GC and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The expression of ERBB genes was analyzed in MSCs and diffuse-type GC which has mesenchymal characteristics compared to intestinal-type GC. The si… Show more
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.
