Intriguingly, it has also been reported that TNX has a tumor suppressor role in cervical cancer via LINC01305 expression which modulates TNX expression (22), esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma (36), and lung cancer via LINC01305 expression (23) and that TNX is downregulated in these tumors. Here, TNXB is linked to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
