More recent work suggests that IGF2BP1, YTHDF1 and YTHDF1 mainly function as oncogenes in multiple cancer types, including colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), gastric cancer, lung cancer, AML, pancreatic cancer, OC, bladder cancer, prostate cancer and melanoma [73, 113]. Here, YTHDF1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
