| Abstract | Tumor metastasis is the primary cause of mortality in most cancer patients. Before disassociation from the tumors, most of malignant tumor cells undergo the epithelial–mesenchymal transition to break away from the adhesions between the cells and the surrounding extracellular matrix. Recently, activating enhancer-binding protein (AP4) has been shown to be a mediator of EMT in colorectal cancer and high level of AP4 correlates with poor prognosis in cancer patients. It has been found that AP4 upregulates the genes involved in EMT and cell proliferation in colorectal cancer cells and that the aggressive human breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 are highly metastatic. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that AP4 may also affect cell migration and EMT in this cell type. Three different assays, including the wound-healing assay, the Boyden chamber assay, and the cell tracking assay, were employed to confirm that AP4 activated both cell migration and invasion. Immunofluorescence staining and Western blot analysis revealed that the cells underwent EMT when AP4 was upregulated. In contrast, overexpression of dominant-negative AP4, lacking the DNA-binding domain, inactivated the DNA-binding ability of endogenous AP4 and led to lower cell motility. Furthermore, we found that AP4 enhanced p53 expression at both transcriptional and translational levels. Knockdown of p53 by siRNA significantly diminished the activation of cell migration by AP4, indicating that AP4 can regulate cell migration via the activity of p53. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
