Role of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) overexpression in cancer. In addition to its role in promoting cancer cell proliferation and suppressing apoptosis, PLK1 overexpression has also been reported to have important roles in oncogenic transformation, tumor initiation and survival, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induction, tumor migration and invasion, and therapeutic resistance.
