The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) imparts metastatic competence on otherwise non-metastatic cancer cells through decreased inter-cellular adhesions, increased migratory capacity, stem cell properties and anoikis and chemotherapy resistance. In this study, we profiled changes in microRNA expression during EMT in conjunction with changes in DNA methylation at microRNA promoters to discover essential mediators of EMT-imparted stemness properties. MicroRNA-203 (miR-203) expression is repre ...[more]
