GLI1 modulates EMT in pancreatic cancer--letter.

Joost and colleagues reported that GLI1 directly transactivates E-cadherin expression and modulates the TGFβ-induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition in pancreatic cancer cells ([1][1]). This conclusion was mainly drawn from the observation that siRNA-mediated knockdown of GLI1 and GLI2
