  • NOVEL MARKER OF EPITHELIAL-MESENCHYMAL TRANSITION IN PANCREATIC CANCER
    Publication number: 20220170106
    Abstract: In order to elucidate the mechanism of malignant alteration of pancreatic cancer caused by BACH1, changes in the gene expression depending on the expression level of BACH1 in the pancreatic cancer cell line were clarified by RNA sequencing. As a result of experiments on in vitro migration ability and invasion ability and in vivo orthotopic transplantation, BACH1 was found to be used as an excellent biomarker for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of pancreatic cancer when used alone or in combination with its downstream regulator FOXA1.
