SKA3 and cancer: Recent studies showed that SKA3 plays a cancer-promoting role, not only by affecting the proliferation of tumor cells through regulating cell cycle checkpoints, but also by participating in a variety of cell biological functions to affect the occurrence and development of tumors (Jiao et al., 2013; Pesson et al., 2014; Lee et al., 2015; Hou et al., 2019).
