In the present study using cell lines, animal model and database analysis, we show that FMOD is crucial for breast cancer cell migration and invasion (BCCMI) via activation of ERK; expression of FMOD is regulated positively by the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, wherein the β-catenin/TCF4/LEF1 complex binds the FMOD promoter to transcribe FMOD. This evidence concerns the gene FMOD and breast carcinoma.
