Moreover, we found that oxidative phosphorylation was repressed in the maxillary processes of wnt1cre; Rosa26Dlx2/- mice, in agreement with previous reports that the Dlx-2/Snail cascade is involved in glycolysis switch and mitochondrial repression in cancer cells (Lee et al., 2015) (Lee et al., 2019). The gene discussed is SNAI1; the disease is cancer.
