Constitutional Nephrin Deficiency in Conditionally Immortalized Human Podocytes Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition, Supported by β-Catenin/NF-kappa B Activation: A Consequen... by Gian Marco Ghiggeri, Maddalena Gigante, Armando Di Donato

“…Here, we show that also human podocytes can undergo EMT, but more importantly nephrin ablation itself can trigger this phenotypic transformation. In fact, a model of human podocyte with engineered nephrin deficiency constitutionally expressed high levels of α-SMA, vimentin, fibronectin, and other hallmarks of EMT. …”

RNA Relocation and Persistence of Nucleolus-Like Bodies at Mitosis in Benzo[a]Pyrene-Transformed Human Breast Epithelial Cells after Microcell-Mediated Transfer of Chromosomes 11 a... by Maria Luiza S. Mello, Mohamed H. Lareef, Benedicto C. Vidal, Jose Russo

“…The changes resulting from the transfer of these two chromosomes in tumorigenic MCF‐10F cells (BP1‐E cell line) were examined, since alterations in these chromosomes are involved in the expression of the transformed and tumorigenic phenotypes in the MCF‐10F cell series. In addition, the frequency of nucleolus‐like bodies decreases drastically with transformation and tumorigenicity in MCF‐10F cells, thus being conceivable that it would be affected in presence of normal chromosomes 11 or 17. …”
