Abstract

This study investigated the effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on transforming growth factor (TGF)-β-mediated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in order to clarify the influence of ROS and TGFβ on the induction of dysplasia and ultimately, tumorigenesis. Confluent MCF-10A human mammary epithelial cells were treated with H2O2 for 1 h, then reseeded at low density in the presence of TGFβ and cultured until confluence. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, 250 μM) enhanced TGFβ-mediated EMT, as evidenced by increased expression of EMT-associated transcription factors, which was accompanied by increased nuclear localization of phosphorylated SMAD family member 2 (SMAD2) and up-regulation of the TGFβ signaling pathway components mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Pharmacological inhibition of MEK/ERK signaling partly reversed the effects of H2O2 Conclusion: H2O2 enhances TGFβ-mediated EMT via SMAD and MEK/ERK signaling.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 April 2017.
All research outputs
#23,011,330
of 25,655,374 outputs
Outputs from Anticancer Research: International Journal of Cancer Research and Treatment
#2,709
of 4,041 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#296,328
of 337,520 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Anticancer Research: International Journal of Cancer Research and Treatment
#56
of 66 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,655,374 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,041 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 337,520 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 66 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
