Brief description The majority of deaths from cancer are due to metastasis, which involves cancer cells becoming invasive and migratory. We aim to understand the molecular mechanisms that control this process, which may lead to identification of molecules that are potentially useful for diagnosing and treating cancer metastasis. We will investigate how TGF� regulates the expression of ZEB proteins, how the ZEB proteins function to repress key microRNAs, and what other genes are targeted by the ZEBs.
