Not surprisingly, UBAP2L has been proposed to activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling cascade in gastric cancer cells, leading to the expression of downstream pathway targets, known to be implicated in tumorigenesis and metastasis (Yook et al., 2006; Liu et al., 2010; Damsky et al., 2011; Lin et al., 2021). This evidence concerns the gene UBAP2L and gastric cancer.
