GDF11, CD151, PAFAH1B2 and YTHDF2 may play a pivotal role in the predisposition of metastasis to the bone from breast cancer, whilst DPP9, FAS, ZNF519, RPP14 and FAU may be actively involved in the adaptative colonisation of metastatic breast cancer cells in bone. Here, YTHDF2 is linked to breast cancer.
