-mediated genetic transformation and cloning of candidate reference genes in suspension cells of Wall. ex DC.

Unlabelled: A reliable and stable -mediated genetic transformation system for has been developed using cell suspension cultures derived from cotyledon explants. Cotyledon, attached cotyledon, and compound leaves were found to be suitable for the induction of callus among five different types of explants tested. The yellow friable callus derived from attached cotyledon was used to initiate suspension cultures in Suspension Culture Medium (SCM) which was supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at 2.

Multiple roles for basement membrane proteins in cancer progression and EMT.

Metastasis or the progression of malignancy poses a major challenge in cancer therapy and is the principal reason for increased mortality. The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of the basement membrane (BM) allows cells of epithelial phenotype to transform into a mesenchymal-like (quasi-mesenchymal) phenotype and metastasize via the lymphovascular system through a metastatic cascade by intravasation and extravasation. This helps in the progression of carcinoma from the primary site to distant organs.
