“…It has been shown that HBXIP promotes proliferation, migration and tumorigenesis of breast, ovarian, liver, non-small-cell lung, bladder urothelial, and esophageal squamous cell cancer (Hu et al, 2011, Liu et al, 2012, Liu et al, 2014, Xu et al, 2014, Zhang et al, 2014, Li and Liu, 2016, Shi et al, 2016, Wang et al, 2017b, Zhou et al, 2019b, Wu et al, 2020). Overexpression of HBXIP is associated with poor prognosis in breast, ovarian, liver, non-small-cell lung cancer and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (Wang et al, 2017b, Li et al, 2017, Wang et al, 2017c, Zhou et al, 2019a, Cheng et al, 2014). HBXIP also contributes to cisplatin and tamoxifen resistance in ovarian and breast cancers, respectively (Zou et al, 2017, Liu et al, 2018).…”
