Besides, MIF-EGFR/TNFRSF14, IGF1/2-IGF1R/2 R, TNFSF12-TNFRSF12A (TWEAK-Fn14) interactions also mediated the crosstalk between TPF or SLF with EPCs, consistent with their function in facilitating tumor progression (Supplementary Figs. S16, S17 and Table S6). The gene discussed is IGF1R; the disease is neoplasm.
