“…According to the previous studies, more than 14 different malignant tumor types, including breast cancer [15], bladder cancer [16], non-small cell lung cancer [17], gastric cancer [18], head and neck squamous cell carcinoma [19], cholangiocarcinoma [20], hepatocellular carcinoma [21], prostate cancer [22], pancreatic cancer [23], colorectal cancer [24], glioma [25], endometrial cancer [26], nasopharyngeal carcinoma [27], and squamous carcinoma of larynx [6], had high expression of CXCL5 when compared to para-carcinoma or normal tissues (Table 1). By identifying and validating the genes regarding the development of gastric cancer, researchers have found that CXCL5, as one of the substances, was associated with early stages of the disease [28].…”
