However, our results showed that the gene expressions of EMT are not consistently increased (increased in Slug and decreased in vimentin and β-catenin for AGS cells; increased in E-cadherin for NUGC-3 cells; decreased in E-cadherin for TSGH9201 cells) by Tid1 knockdown in the AGS, NUGC-3, and TSGH9201 gastric cancer cells (Figure 6C). The gene discussed is VIM; the disease is gastric cancer.
