Given the clinical relevance we uncovered for EIF4EBP1 mRNA and 4EBP1 protein expression in MB patients, we wondered whether 4EBP1 contributes to cell migration and exerts a pro-tumorigenic function in this tumor entity, as reported in gliomas [25] and Ewing sarcomas [27]. Here, EIF4EBP1 is linked to neoplasm.
