  1. Nine of the 99 target genes differentially expressed in SNAI1-DN clone are implicated in the EMT process and matrix remodelling, including some members of the plasminogen activation system. Particularly, the expression of PAI-1 is decreased by 7.2-fold in SNAI1-DN clones. - = down-regulation; + = up-regulation.
