Recently, immunohistochemistry (IHC) performed on paraffin-embedded tissue samples revealed higher ZNF217 protein expression levels in tumor tissue from both squamous cervical cancer (10 out of 10 tested samples) [79] and colorectal cancer (p < 0.05 [52], p < 0.001 [21]) compared to in matched normal adjacent tissue. Here, ZNF217 is linked to colorectal cancer.
