CDH1 and cancer: PCD-related genes could promote tumor metastasis and poor prognosis via VEGF/HIF-1/MAPK signaling and immune response, including Th1/Th2 cell differentiation, while new tumor event occurrences (metastasis/secondary cancers) were linked to specific clinical features and gene mutation spectrums, including TP53/CDH1 mutations and genomic instability.
