In the HT-29 cell line, CARD11 overexpression activated pathways involved in chemotaxis and extracellular matrix (ECM) organization, marked by IL1RN, MDK, SPP1, and chemokines like CXCL1, CXCL3, and CCL22, which were shown to contribute to the more invasive stage of CRC. The gene discussed is CARD11; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
