RNF128 Promotes Invasion and Metastasis Via the EGFR/MAPK/MMP-2 Pathway in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Background: The prognosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is generally poor, and the identification of molecular markers related to the regulation of ESCC invasion and migration is important. Methods and Results: In this study, we report that ring finger protein-128 (RNF128) enhances the invasiveness and motility of ESCC cells by using transwell assays and Western blotting. A xenograft nude mouse model showed that RNF128 promotes...
