CEBPD and cancer: Research has shown the following: (1) CEBPD acts as an oncogene or cancer suppressor, depending on the cancer type and microenvironments; (2) CEBPD regulates the inflammatory process by promoting or inhibiting pro-inflammatory pathways in response to different inflammatory stimuli; and (3) CEBPD is involved in neuroinflammation and some diseases of the central nervous system.
