Monopolar spindle protein 1 (MPS1) kinase has been reported to promote progression of cancers and MPS1 overexpression was related with poor survival of cancer patients including breast, liver, lung cancers (Choi et al., 2017; King et al., 2018; Tsai et al., 2020; Xu et al., 2016). This evidence concerns the gene TTK and lung carcinoma.
