ESCA

P-SNE

TP53INP1

Cytosol

TP53INP1 plays a key role in the progression of undifferentiated carcinoma44.

 

O-SNE

HPR

Extracellular

HPR treatment was shown to modulate cell morphology and suppress growth in esophageal squamous carcinoma models45.

HNSC

P-SNE

DPH3

Cytosol

DPH3 promoter mutations were found to functionally correlate with solar lentigines development at tumor sites46.

 

O-SNE

SMARCAL1

Nucleus

SMARCAL1 expression serves as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in multiple cancer types, particularly in glioma47.

UCEC

P-SNE

NOTCH1

Cytosol

NOTCH1 plays a critical role in tumorigenesis across multiple cancer types through its involvement in proliferation and survival pathways48.

 

O-SNE

API5

Nucleus

API5 is highly expressed in cancer cells and promotes the maintenance of stemness characteristics49.
