The cell-biological program termed epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a key role in adenocarcinoma progression, invasion, and metastasis. An EMT operating within carcinoma cells can be activated by a variety of paracrine signals arising in the tumor microenvironment. These EMT-inducing signals trigger profound transcription changes through activation of EMT-inducing transcription factors (EMT-TFs), leading to repression of genes associated with the epithelial differentiation program and activation of those associated with the mesenchymal program.
