Cells undergoing it lose epithelial characteristics integrity, acquire mesenchymal features, become motile.

Introduction Epithelial-to-mesenchymal describes transdifferentiation stationary cells mesenchymal, motile phenotype was initially observed early development (Hay, 1995). Here, contributes embryonal processes like gastrulation, neural crest formation, or heart (Thiery et al, 2009; Nieto 2016). also crucial physiological wound healing (Arnoux 2008) tissue homeostasis (Ahmed 2006). Importantly, pathological reactivation plays role diseases organ fibrosis metastasis (Fig 1A), which focus review. Figure 1.

Cellular Plasticity in Cancer

Cancer Discovery, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 9(7), P. 837 - 851

Published: April 16, 2019

Abstract During cancer progression, tumor cells undergo molecular and phenotypic changes collectively referred to as cellular plasticity. Such result from microenvironmental cues, stochastic genetic epigenetic alterations, and/or treatment-imposed selective pressures, thereby contributing heterogeneity therapy resistance. Epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity is the best-known case of cell plasticity, but recent work has uncovered other examples, often with functional consequences. In this review, we explore nature role(s) these diverse programs in premalignant evolution, adaptation consider ways which targeting could lead novel anticancer treatments. Significance: Changes identity, or are common at different stages it become clear that can be a potent mediator progression chemoresistance. Understanding mechanisms underlying various forms may deliver new strategies for most lethal aspects cancer: metastasis resistance therapy.
