The in vitro and in vivo studies, and TCGA data indicated that IGF2BP1 is significantly overexpressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially both lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), and that its high expression correlates with the disease progression [32, 33]. Here, IGF2BP1 is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
