In addition, we found that the expression of the TH1-type chemokines CXCL9 and CXCL10, which could be induced by interferon gamma (IFN-γ) and mediate effector T-cell trafficking, was increased when SATB2-AS1 was knockdown in CRC cells (Fig. 2g, Additional file 3: Figure S2d). The gene discussed is CXCL10; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
