FOXC1, however, is not only involved in BLBC – studies have shown that FOXC1 plays a role in the interleukin-8 inflammatory pathway associated with hepatocellular carcinoma [26, 27] while other studies reveal FOXC1's involvement in endometrial cancer progression via miRNA 204 and miRNA 495 [28, 29]. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
