Other researches showed that the cell proliferation and mobility of colorectal cancer cells were inhibited by knocking down the expression of CEMIP in vitro, and the EMT process of colorectal cancer cells is suppressed by shRNA-CEMIP via inactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin/Snail pathway (Liang et al., 2018). The gene discussed is SNAI1; the disease is colorectal cancer.
