VIM and ovarian carcinoma: The relative levels of E-cadherin mRNA transcripts in ovarian cancer tissues were significantly lower than that in the non-tumor tissues (p = 0.0132) while the relative levels of TRPM7 (p = 0.0104), Vimentin (p = 0.0021) and Twist (p = 0.0068) were significantly higher than that in the non-tumor tissues in this population (Fig. 1a).
