EPCAM and neoplasm: Following OE of UGCG, mRNA concentrations of the tumor markers glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4), glucose transporter type 6 (GLUT6), fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), X-box binding protein 1 (Xpb1), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1), glutamate-ammonia ligase (Glul), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1B (CPT1B), insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2), epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EPCAM) and cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) are significantly decreased in NMuLi/UGCG OE cells (Fig. 6B).
