Overexpression of adenylate cyclase-associated protein 1 is associated with metastasis of lung cancer.

“Lung cancer ranks first in both prevalence and mortality rates among all types of cancer. Metastasis is the main cause of treatment failure. Biomarkers are critical to early diagnosis and prediction and monitoring of progressive lesions…

The present study assessed the diagnostic and prognostic value of cyclase-associated protein 1 (CAP1) for lung cancer…

These findings suggest that overexpression of CAP1 in lung cancer cells, particularly at the metastatic stage, may have significant clinical implications as a diagnostic/prognostic factor for lung cancer.”
