Ectopic miRNA network and the crosstalk between different signalling pathways during EMT and MET

The tumor microenvironment (TEM) comprise of various cellular and molecular components such as fibroblasts, immune cells, bone marrow-derived inflammatory cells, endothelial cells, extracellular matrix (ECM), and signaling molecules. The complex crosstalk between (TEM) components and malignant cells...

EMT enables epithelial cells to lose their cell polarity, acquire cancer stem cell-like properties which favor tumor invasion, extravasation and metastasis.
