β2M silencing upregulated p-CREB/CREB and VEGF protein and significantly downregulated p-ERK/ERK levels, and β2M overexpression downregulated p-CREB/CREB and VEGF, significantly upregulated p-ERK/ERK levels, and both resulting processes did not affect HIF-1α and SGK1 signaling in ER− breast cancer cells with HER2−. The gene discussed is CREB1; the disease is breast cancer.
