Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L3 regulates EMT process and cancer metastasis in prostate cell lines.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Autophagy and apoptosis are two important regulators of cell survival, and are often observed simultaneously in response to noxious stimuli. Anoxia is a known stimulus for autophagy and apoptosis, and angiotensin (Ang) II is a major mediator of anoxic injury. However, specific responses to anoxia and Ang II ...
