Prostate cancer (PCa) is a common disease in elderly men, its incidence ranking the second among all malignancies in males in Western countries and increasing in China in the last decade. Tumor metastasis is the main cause of death of PCa patients. In the development and progression of tumor, the tumorous cells in the infiltration area interact with their microenvironment, undergo epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and consequently cause distant metastases. So to study the role of EMT in the development and progression of tumor is of great significance for the treatment of PCa. This article reviews the relevant literature of the last 3 years and gives an overview of the factors affecting EMT in prostate cancer, aiming at a therapeutic target.

Exosome, a membranous vesicle with biological activity, not only transmits active substances between cells but also transfers information between cells to participate in cell communication. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a process by which epithelial cells acquire migratory and invasive properties to become mesenchymal stem cells. EMT is essential for the development of a spectrum of diseases. Studies have shown that exosomes have dual effects on EMT to, on the one hand, promote EMT and tumor cell invasion and metastasis and accelerate angiogenesis and tumor growth; on the other hand, exosomes can suppress tumor cell invasion, inhibit fibrosis of the heart, liver and kidney, and improve myocardial infarction by inhibiting EMT. Exosomes modulate EMT-related signaling pathways by carrying EMT-related proteins or miRNA to exert their bi-directional regulatory effects.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive scar-forming disease with a high mortality rate that has received widespread attention. Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important part of the pulmonary fibrosis process, and changes in the biomechanical properties of lung tissue have an important impact on it. In this paper, we summarize the changes in the biomechanical microenvironment of lung tissue in IPF-EMT in recent years, and provide a systematic review on the effects of alterations in the mechanical microenvironment in pulmonary fibrosis on the process of EMT, the effects of mechanical factors on the behavior of alveolar epithelial cells in EMT and the biomechanical signaling in EMT, in order to provide new references for the research on the prevention and treatment of IPF.
