Abstract:
Subsequently to the publication of the above article, an interested reader drew to the authors' attention that, concerning the cell invasion assays shown in Fig. 5A on p. 1436, the 'WT' and 'pEF6' data panels contained apparently overlapping sections of data, such that these experiments were apparently derived from the same original source where the results of differently performed experiments were intended to have been portrayed. After re‑examining their original data, the authors have realized that the data panel in Fig. 5A for the 'pEF6' experiment was inadvertently selected incorrectly. The revised version of Fig. 5, showing all the correct data for Fig. 5A, is shown on the next page. The authors are grateful to the Editor of International Journal of Oncology for allowing them this opportunity to publish a Corrigendum, and all the authors agree with its publication. Furthermore, the authors apologize to the readership for any inconvenience caused. [International Journal of Oncology 47: 1429‑1439, 2015; DOI: 10.3892/ijo.2015.3121].

Metastasis
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Functions
When the tumor suppressor genes develop mutations or are lost, cells start growing out of control, leading to cancer. However, a single functional copy of the tumor suppressor gene is enough for the cells to maintain their normal functions and cell...
The Retinoblastoma Gene
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...
