## Abstract Recent data indicate that transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β1) can act to promote tumour progression in the late stages of carcinogenesis. The mechanism by which this occurs is unknown although a ligand‐induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is thought to be important. In thi

## Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by myofibroblast accumulation, extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, and excessive collagen deposition. ECM‐producing myofibroblasts may originate from epithelial cells through epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). TGF‐β1 is an induc
## Abstract We report here side population (SP) cells, a cancer stem cell enriched fraction from pancreatic cancer cell line, have enormous superior potential of the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), invasion, and metastasis. In an isolated SP cell culture, the cells rapidly expressed and
