In microfluidic filtration systems, one of the leading obstacles to efficient, continuous
operation is clogging of the filters. Here, we introduce a lateral flow microfluidic sieving (μ-sieving) …

The prognosis of breast cancer patients is related to the degree of metastasis. However, the
mechanisms by which epithelial tumor cells escape from the primary tumor and colonize at a …

Basal-type breast cancers are among the most aggressive and deadly breast cancer subtypes,
displaying a high metastatic ability associated with mesenchymal features. However, the …

Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is developmental process associated with
cancer metastasis. Here, we found that breast carcinoma cells adopt epithelial-to-mesenchymal …

Metastasis is a challenging clinical problem and the primary cause of death in breast cancer
patients. However, there is no therapeutic agent against metastasis of breast cancer cells. …

Background Mesenchymal stemlike cells (MSLCs) have been detected in many types of
cancer including brain tumors and have received attention as stromal cells in the tumor …

Background Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) has been widely used in many areas, including
biomedicine, cosmetics, and environmental engineering. Recently, it has become evident that …

Tescalcin (TESC; also known as calcineurin B homologous protein 3, CHP3) has recently
reported as a regulator of cancer progression. Here, we showed that the elevation of TESC in …

We here report that doxycycline, an antibacterial agent, exerts dramatic effects on human
embryonic stem and induced pluripotent stem cells (hESC/iPSCs) survival and self-renewal. …

Metastasis of breast cancer is promoted by epithelial–mesenchymal transition ( EMT ).
Emerging evidence suggests that STAT 3 is a critical signaling node in EMT and is constitutively …
