Elaeagnus angustifolia Plant Extract Inhibits Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Induces Apoptosis via HER2 Inactivation and JNK Pathway in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Cells by Jabeen, Ayesha

“…Our data revealed that extract inhibits cell proliferation and deregulates cell-cycle progression of these two cancer cell lines. extract also prevents the progression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), an important event for cancer invasion and metastasis; this is accompanied by upregulations of E-cadherin and β-catenin, in addition to downregulations of vimentin and fascin, which are major markers of EMT. Thus, extract causes a drastic decrease in cell invasion ability of SKBR3 and ZR75-1 cancer cells. …”
