Genetic dissection of the miR-200–Zeb1 axis reveals its importance in tumor differentiation and invasion

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 regulati...

Sumario: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.
