TGF-beta strongly promotes local tumor progression in advanced epithelial tumors, though the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In the present study, we demonstrate the potential of TGF-beta to increase the invasiveness of the pancreatic cancer cell lines PANC-1 and IMIM-PC1. TGF-beta-indu

## Abstract TGF‐β1 is a potent inductor of malignance in cancer cells. TGF‐β1 stimulates the expression of extracellular matrix degrading proteases, cell migration and it is also involved in the epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). In the present work, we analyzed the role of Spred2 in the urok
## Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) plays a critical role in tumor invasion and metastasis. Here, we investigate the effect of fibroblast growth factor‐1 (FGF‐1) on the expression of MMP‐9 in ENU1564, an ethyl‐__N__‐nitrosourea‐induced rat mammary adenocarcinoma cell line. We observed th
## Abstract Members of Snail family of transcription factors play an important role in oral cancer progression by inducing epithelial–mesenchymal transition, by promoting invasion and by increasing matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression. Although Snail (Snai1) is the best characterized and the m
## Abstract The expression of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9) has been implicated in progression of atherosclerotic lesions. The role and importance of the signaling pathway in the transcriptional regulation of MMP‐9 in human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMC) was examined. Tumor necrosis factor
