Many papers have shown that the over-expression/mutation of DDR1 is associated with multiple cancers, including major types such as lung, breast, brain, liver, pancreas and prostate [5], and that this over-expression/mutation promotes significant disease progression on a large number of non-cancer disease states caused by various inflammatory conditions, including fibrosis [6], atherosclerosis [7] and liver/kidney dysfunction [8,9]. This evidence concerns the gene DDR1 and cancer.
