(Journal Article): Rearrangements of desmosomal and cytoskeletal proteins during the transition from epithelial to fibroblastoid organization in cultured rat bladder carcinoma cells.
 
Boyer B, Tucker GC, Valles AM, Franke WW, Thiery JP
 
IN: J Cell Biol 1989; 109(4 Pt 1):1495-1509

ABSTRACT: Changes of cell morphology and the state of differentiation are known to play important roles in embryogenesis as well as in carcinogenesis. Examples of particularly profound chang... Click HERE for details

 

(Journal Article): Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition generates proliferative human islet precursor cells.
 
Gershengorn MC, Hardikar AA, Wei C, Geras-Raaka E, Marcus-Samuels B, Raaka BM

ABSTRACT: Insulin-expressing beta cells, found in pancreatic islets, are capable of generating more beta cells even in the adult. We show that fibroblast-like cells derived from adult human ... Click HERE for details
