UNC5B regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition through a SRC-ZEB1 signaling axis to facilitate pancreatic cancer metastasis

Metastatic dissemination is the principal cause of death in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), yet the molecular determinants that enable this process remain poorly understood. Here, we identify the axon guidance receptor UNC5B as a central regulator of PDAC metastasis. Usi...
