Open AccessCancer-related ectopic expression of the bone-related transcription factor RUNX2 in non-osseous metastatic tumor cells is linked to cell proliferation and motility
Metastatic breast cancer cells frequently and ectopically express the transcription factor RUNX2, which normally attenuates proliferation and promotes maturation of osteoblasts. RUNX2 expression is inversely r...

Elevated expression of Runx2 as a key parameter in the etiology of osteosarcoma
To understand the molecular etiology of osteosarcoma, we isolated and characterized a human osteosarcoma cell line (OS1). OS1 cells have high osteogenic potential in differentiation induction media. Molecular ...
