MET, mesenchymal-epithelial-transition: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) is a process that is closely related to its counterpart, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). While EMT is a process by which epithelial cells acquire mesenchymal characteristics, MET is the reverse process, where mesenchymal cells gain epithelial properties.
MET is an important process that can contribute to the development and progression of tumors. During MET, cancer cells can regain their epithelial characteristics, such as cell polarity and adhesion, which can lead to the formation of more organized and differentiated tumor structures.
Mesenchymal markers Vimentin (VIM), SNAIL, SLUG, and ZEB1.
