Alternative Names
Protein FAM3C; Interleukin-Like EMT Inducer; FAM3C; ILEI
Background
FAM3C, also called interleukin-like EMT inducer, usually exist in most secretory epithelia. It belongs to the FAM3 family according to their sequence similarities. The up-regulation and/or mislocalization in breast cancer and liver carcinoma cells of FAM3C is strongly correlated with metastasis formation and survival. FAM3C can be involved in retinal laminar formation and promote epithelial to mesenchymal transition.
