epithelial-mesenchymal transition
29 October 2003EMT, EMP; epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity
Definition: Conversion from an epithelial to a mesenchymal phenotype, which is a normal process of embryonic development. In carcinomas, this transformation results in altered cell morphology, the expression of mesenchymal proteins and increased invasiveness.
EMTs in tumors
Epithelial-mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) occur as key steps during embryonic morphogenesis, and are now implicated in the progression of primary tumors towards metastases. (...) -

Definition: Histiocytes that are laden with lipid (predominantly cholesterol ), and that have differentiated from circulating monocytes.
