Cell migration-inducing protein (Cemip), alias HA-binding protein involved in HA depolymerization (HYBID) and KIAA1199, has been recently observed to have functional consequences in functions including deafness, bone growth, fibrosis, and tumor invasion (Shimoda et al., 2017; Tang et al., 2019; Yoshida et al., 2013; Yoshino et al., 2017, 2018). Here, CEMIP is linked to neoplasm.
