VIM and cervical cancer: Moreover, overexpression of MRPS18–2 in endometrial cancer cells is associated with decreased signaling of pan-keratin, β-catenin, and E-cadherin, while showing increased vimentin signaling (118).In cervical cancer, univariate analysis has shown that the expression of MRPL11 and MRPS23 is significantly associated with PFS, and high expression of these genes is closely related to rapid proliferation of cervical cancer cells, oxidative phosphorylation, invasiveness, and tumor size, indicating that they may play important roles in the progression and metastasis of cervical cancer (119).
