Additionally, knockdown upregulated the expression of epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers (Snail, Twist1, Zeb1, Zeb2, and vimentin) and cancer stem cell biomarkers (Oct4, Sox2, Nanog, KLF4, and ALDH1A1), and increased the expression of matrix metallopeptidases (MMP-2 and MMP-9), drug resistance genes (MDR1 and MRP1), and Notch1. The gene discussed is ABCB1; the disease is cancer.
