Interestingly, overexpression of TP53TG1 also upregulates the expression of genes which promote cell migration, indicating the beneficial effect of TP53TG1 on cancer cell metastasis, this finding being consistent with the previous report that TP53TG1 may act as a tumor suppressor gene or an oncogene in different tumors (Zhang et al., 2019b). This evidence concerns the gene TP53TG1 and cancer.
