Discoidin domain receptor 1 activity drives an aggressive phenotype in bladder cancer.
Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: tumor xenograft growth could be promoted by the overexpressed DDR1, while both of which could be inhibited after the depletion of DDR1. Furthermore, DDR1 increased the levels of ZEB1 and Slug, based on its effects on tumor invasion. In conclusion, DDR1 may promote the aggressiveness of bladder cancer cells and drive an aggressive phenotype in bladder cancer.
