The underlying mechanism regulating the expression of the cancer stem cell/tumor-initiating cell marker CD133/prominin-1 in cancer cells remains largely unclear, although knowledge of this mechanism… (More)
The proto-oncogene, c-src, has been implicated in the tumorigenesis in breast cancer. However, the relationship of c-src with distant metastasis is unclear. Moreover, the role of c-src in… (More)
Cell adhesion molecules have been implicated in the selective colonization of cancer in distant organs. Breast cancer has a strong predilection for spreading to bone. Cadherin-11, which is one of the… (More)
