EZH2 engages TGFβ signaling to promote breast cancer bone metastasis via integrin β1-FAK activation

Abstract

Breast cancer cells are known to metastasize to the bone but why the cells should migrate and metastasize to this particular organ is not clearly understood. Here, the authors show that EZH2 activates an integrin B1 and FAK signaling pathway in breast cancer cells, which activates TGFB signaling to drive metastasis in the bone.
