Zheng et al. (2016) suggested that LASP1 silencing hindered cell proliferation and metastasis in esophageal cancer (Liu H. et al., 2019). Shimizu et al. (2013) investigated that LASP1 silencing induced cell cycle accumulation in G2 phase in oral cancer. In addition, LASP1 silencing inhibited cell migration in clear cell renal cell cancer (Yang et al., 2014). Here, LASP1 is linked to esophageal cancer.
