“…Overexpression of Zeb1, Hef1 and claudin 1 has been implicated in promotion of cell migration and metastasis in various types of cancers. Vice versa, a knockdown of Zeb1, Hef1 and Claudin 1 factors with siRNA or shRNA in undifferentiated cancer cells such as SW480 cells resulted in metastasis inhibition (Sarah et al, 2002;Leu et al, 2003;Ray et al, 2003;Conroy et al, 2005;Natarajan et al, 2006;Sita et al, 2006;Spaderna et al, 2006;Su, 2006a;Aigner et al, 2007;Ji et al, 2007;Izumchenko et al, 2009;Wellner et al, 2009;Myal et al, 2010;Amar et al, 2011;Li et al, 2011;Chen et al, 2012;Sanchez-Tillo et al, 2013). To date, few studies have investigated the molecular mechanisms through which curcumin inhibits metastasis: Amitava Chatterjee et al suggested that curcumin impedes cell metastasis by inhibiting the expression of cell adhesions molecules such as integrin receptors, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and enhances the expression of E-cadherin (Ray et al, 2003).…”
