CERK and lung carcinoma: For example, work from the Rotstein lab demonstrated that C1P potently induces DNA synthesis and proliferation of retina photoreceptors, pointing to a relevant role of C1P in vision physiology [29], and Mitra and co-workers and Pastukhov and co-workers showed that CerK played a relevant role in regulating breast and lung cancer cell proliferation [30,31].
