SATB2 and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: Additionally, we investigated whether SATB2 could affect the proliferation rate and tumorigenicity of LSCC cells (HEp2) and additional head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) cell line Tca8113 and found that over-expression of SATB2 inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation ability of HEp2 cells and Tca8113 cells.
