GTPBP4: A New Therapeutic Target Gene Promotes Tumor Progression in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer via EMT.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer has a complex etiology involving multiple regulatory systems. Uncertainty about the biology and evolution of lung cancer has made it difficult to improve its poor prognosis. To create efficient therapeutic targets and optimal molecular screening tools for lung cancer, the most important task seems to be to understand how it develops and progresses. The expression and regulation of GTPBP4 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are not well understood. Using methods such as knocking down GTPBP4 in lung cancer cells and establishing a mouse lung cancer model, we found that the expression of GTPBP4 was upregulated in human lung adenocarcinoma cells and tissues, and that knocking down the expression of the GTPBP4 gene in A549 and Calu-1 lung adenocarcinoma cells can inhibit the proli
