We found that EMT markers N-cadherin and Vimentin were downregulated in lung cancer H1299 cells stably overexpressing Kindlin-1 compared with the control cells expressing Flag-BAP (Fig. 4c), suggesting a role of Kindlin-1 in inhibition of EMT program in lung adenocarcinoma cells. The gene discussed is FERMT1; the disease is lung carcinoma.
