IFIT2 and esophageal cancer: We found that in IFIT2 higher expression group, there are 37 cases of non-EMT and 45 cases of EMT, and in IFIT2 lower expression group, there are two cases of non-EMT and 15 cases of EMT, which indicates that decreased IFIT2 expression in human esophageal cancer tissues significantly associated with EMT status (χ2 = 6.562, P = 0.0104).
