Core Tip |
This study revealed that BMI-1 was upregulated in liver cells during colorectal cancer (CRC) liver metastasis. BMI-1-activated LX2 hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) promoted CRC cell proliferation, migration, and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, transforming growth factor beta 1 was increased in BMI-1 overexpressed LX2 HSCs, and triggered the phosphorylation of downstream SMAD2/3 in CRC cells and the interaction of activated HSCs and CRC cells, thereby further promoting CRC progression. |
