SERPINE2 and cancer: Removal of IL11 abrogated the growth competitiveness of YTHDF2-deficient SMMC7721 cells (Fig. 5g), while a SERPINE2 deficit attenuated the proangiogenic capacity of SMMC7721 cells (Fig. 5h), highlighting that IL11 and SERPINE2 are key targets of YTHDF2 in cancer-promoting inflammation.
