Phosphorylated UGDH interacts with HuR to weaken the UDP-glucose-mediated inhibition of HuR binding to SNAI1 mRNA, thereby enhancing the stability of SNAI1 mRNA, increasing the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of lung cancer cells, and the migration of tumour cells and lung cancer metastasis (19). Here, ELAVL1 is linked to neoplasm.
