EMC6 and neoplasm: Previous studies have found that EMC6 protein levels are reduced in gastric cancers (Wang et al., 2017; Li et al., 2019) but are significantly elevated in cervical cancers (Shen and Ding, 2017), suggesting that the protein may act as either a tumor suppressor or promoter, depending on the cancer type (Shen and Ding, 2017).
