## Abstract Osteosarcoma by nature shows aggressive pulmonary metastasis; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We previously showed that Nβcadherin and cadherinβ11 (OBβcadherin), which are highly expressed in normal osteoblasts, are anomalously expressed in human osteosarcom

Mammary carcinoma frequently metastasizes to specific organs, including the regional lymph nodes, the lung and bone marrow. The mechanisms that guide organ-specific metastasis and the molecular players that are involved remain to be established. To gain insight into this problem, we used an orthotop
The mta1 gene is a recently identified novel candidate metastasis-associated gene. The deduced amino acid sequence contains an src homology-3 domain binding motif, a zinc finger motif and possible phosphorylation sites, suggesting that this gene is involved in signal transduction or regulation of ge
## Abstract Expression of the Wilms' tumor gene __WT1__ in __de novo__ lung cancer was examined using quantitative realβtime RTβPCR and immunohistochemistry. Overexpression of the __WT1__ gene was detected by RTβPCR in 54/56 (96%) __de novo__ nonβsmall cell lung cancers examined and confirmed by de
## Abstract Invasive behavior is the pathological hallmark of malignant gliomas, being responsible for the failure of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential for proper ECM remodeling and invasion. The tumor and metastasis suppressor __RECK__ protein reg
The GAS1 gene product induces growth arrest through a p53-dependent mechanism. To investigate whether GAS1 is a tumor suppressor gene, we transfected GAS1-negative human tumor cells with GAS1 plasmids and analyzed growth characteristics of stable transfectants. When a constitutively expressing GAS1
