Epithelial-mesenchymal transformation(EMT) is a coordinated process in which polarized epithelial cells are induced to lose adhesion from the basement membrane and obtain the properties of mesenchymal cells, including invasion and metastasis. It has been proved that EMT greatly contributes to the invasion and therapeutic resistance of various solid human cancers. However, the role of EMT in brain glioma has not yet been fully clarified. So in this review, we mainly elaborate the latest progression about the related regulatory transcription factors, key signaling pathways and microRNAs (miRNAs) of EMT in gliomas.
