Myc-modulated miR-9 makes more metastases

Yeesim Khew-Goodall et al. Nat Cell Biol. 2010 Mar.

Abstract

The microRNA miR-9 is induced by Myc in breast cancer cells where it targets the major epithelial adherens junction protein, E-cadherin. This primes the cancer cells for epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and also stimulates angiogenesis in tumours.
