CTNNB1 and neoplasm: To directly determine whether alterations in the EMT markers could be one of the mechanisms by which miR-182-5p modulated the tumor phenotypes in the PCa cells, we evaluated the protein and mRNA expression levels of seven EMT markers (CTNNB1, CDH1, CLDN1, SNAIL1, SNAIL2, VIM, and ZEB1) in PC-3 transfected cells.
