AIM: To explore the correlation between Twist-related protein (Twist) 1, fibroblast growth
factor receptor (FGFR) 2 and gastric adenocarcinoma differentiation and progression …

E‐cadherin loss is a key biological mechanism in tumour invasion. As a main regulator of
epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) mechanism‐mediated invasion and metastasis …

The embryonic transcription factors TWIST1/2 are frequently overexpressed in cancer, acting
as multifunctional oncogenes. Here we investigate their role in neuroblastoma (NB), a …

Objective To investigate the relationship of Twist induced epithelial mesenchymal transitions
(EMT) during pancreatic carcinoma progression. Methods The expressions of Twist, N …

ABSTRACT Introduction: The Twist-related protein 1 (Twist1) is a transcription factor of the
helix-loop-helix type whose high tissue expression has been observed in colorectal cancer …

In this study, we aimed to explore new downstream effectors of TWIST1/2 in inducing
epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in gastric cancer. Bioinformatic data mining was …

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play critical roles in tumor progression. However, the
role and mechanism underlying CAFs in esophageal cancer (EC) remain unclear. In this …

Twist1 overexpression is frequently observed in various cancers including gastric cancer
(GC). Although DNA methylation of the Twist1 gene has been reported in cancer cells, the …

Background Twist2 has been shown to promote human tumor invasion as in breast cancer
and cervical cancer. However, whether Twist2 promotes human ovarian cancer progression …

Twist1 overexpression corresponds with poor survival in non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC), but the underlining mechanism is not clear. The objective of the present study was …
