MMP3 and cancer: Besides, WTAP is also involved in the regulation of the expressions of some genes related to cancer cell movements, such as chemotactic ligand 2 (CCL2), chemotactic ligand 3 (CCL3), matrix metallopeptidase 3 (MMP3), lysyl oxidase-like protein 1 (LOXL1), hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS1), and thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) [48].
