FXR1 associates with and degrades PDZK1IP1 and ATOH8 mRNAs and promotes esophageal cancer progression

The growing body of evidence suggests that RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have an important function in cancer biology. This research characterizes the expression status of fragile X-related protein 1 (FXR1) in esophageal cancer (ESCA) cell lines and understands its mechanistic importance in ESCA tumor biology.
