In pancreatic cancer cells, ILF2 overexpression increases migration and invasion by regulating genes involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, such as upregulating vimentin (VIM) and fibronectin 1 (FN1) while downregulating cadherin 1 (CDH1/E-cadherin) (17). This evidence concerns the gene VIM and pancreatic neoplasm.
