CAPNS1 and esophageal cancer: For example, Wu et al. [10] reported that elevated expression of Capn4 was linked to poor prognosis as well as lymph node metastasis and deeper tumor invasion in esophageal cancer, which was consistent with the results in nasopharyngeal carcinoma [12], but no significant association was found between Capn4 protein expression and T stage in gastric cancer [13].
