For instance, DPT can modulate the connection and adhesion of liver cancer and oral cancer cells to the ECM, thereby affecting the invasion and migration capacity (Fu et al. 2014; Yamatoji et al. 2012); It can also regulate the MEK-ERK-MYC signaling pathway, inhibiting the expression of downstream proteins such as CDK4, CDK6, and p21, which, in turn, suppresses the proliferation of thyroid cancer cells. The gene discussed is MYC; the disease is liver cancer.
