Figure 13. Conceptual scheme of the mechanisms by which PPARD upregulation in cancer cells promotes metastasis.

Figure 13

PPARD is upregulated in cancer cells. The upregulated PPARD in turn transcriptionally increases the expression of various pro-metastatic genes (e.g., IL8, VEGF, STC1, VIM, SPARC), which promote EMT and other important metastatic events.
