DESI1 and non-small cell lung carcinoma: In addition, cells exposed to hypoxia and reoxygenation conditions showed altered expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related genes in NSCLC cell lines both at mRNA (AKT1, CAMK2NH1, DESI1, VIM, MAP1B, EGFR, ZEB1, HIF1α) and protein levels (Vimentin, Pan-cytokeratin).
