Deskripsi
In vivo studies on the regulation of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) within a physiological context are lacking. Here it is shown that miR-200 ablation in the Rip-Tag2 insulinoma mouse model induces beta-cell dedifferentiation, EMT and tumor invasion, and that disruption of Zeb1 regulation by miR-200c is sufficient to drive EMT.
