Both exportin1, also known as Chromosomal maintenance 1 (Crm1), and Kapß1 have the potential to be regarded as biomarkers and therapeutic targets, as the inhibition of Kapß1 expression in cervical cancer cells leads to apoptotic cell death, suggesting a functional dependency on Kapß1 overexpression for cervical cancer cells transformation ability. Here, XPO1 is linked to cervical cancer.
