However, ATF3 suppresses esophageal SCC growth by downregulating ID1 (inhibitor of DNA binding 1), blocks the metastasis of bladder cancer by regulating gelsolin-mediated remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton and inhibits the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by upregulating CYR61 expression. This evidence concerns the gene ID1 and urinary bladder carcinoma.
