4 citations
,
December 2023 in “Medicine” This study found that the genes MYLK and CALD1 were expressed at lower levels in bladder cancer and osteosarcoma tissues compared to normal tissues, and their expression levels appeared to correlate with poorer survival outcomes, suggesting they may be important in disease progression and prognosis.
28 citations
,
November 2018 in “Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine” This review discusses the role of the CXXC5 protein as a transcription factor and signaling coordinator, noting its involvement in embryonic development, tissue homeostasis, and diseases such as tumorigenesis, but reports no new experimental findings.
