BCL2 and cervical carcinoma: Overexpression of HOXC6 promotes cervical cancer cell cycle progression and proliferation via enhancing BCL2-mediated antiapoptotic effects [10], while PDX (pancreatic duodenal homeobox) has been shown to inhibit cervical cancer HeLa cell proliferation, invasion, and migration, enhance the overall health of tumor-bearing nude mice, and reduce tumor weight and volume [11].
