Studies have indicated that FOXQ1 is also an oncogene in multiple tumors, including colorectal cancer (CRC) (10–12), non-small cell lung cancer (13), breast cancer (14, 15), ovarian cancer (16), bladder carcinoma (17), stomach cancer (18), liver cancer (19), and neuroglioma (20). Here, FOXQ1 is linked to colorectal carcinoma.
