Advanced ovarian cancers contain 2 distinct phenotypic populations: (a) free-floating tumor cells in the ascitic fluid and (b) solid tumors. Ascites cells are derived from the solid tumors and spread throughout the peritoneum. Changes in cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions are thoug

## Abstract Tβcadherin appears to act as a tumorβsuppressor factor in various cancers. Downregulation of Tβcadherin is caused by a combination of allelic loss and hypermethylation of the Tβcadherin promoter region and is related to cancer invasion. To elucidate the molecular mechanism of invasivene
## E-cadherin (E-CD) is a cell-adhesion molccule that has been associated with invasion and metastasis in a wide variety of human neoplasms. We have recently shown that, although decreased E-CD expression is associated with increased bladder-wall invasion and higher tumor grade of injltrating transi
Bone marrow stroma is the physical basis of the haematopoietic microenvironment and regulates several key features of stem cell proliferation and differentiation. It plays a crucial role in maintaining haematopoietic homeostasis. Earlier studies have shown that this is achieved through interactions
