Activating Transcription Factor 5 Promotes Tumorigenic Capability in Cervical Cancer Through the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway by Shi F, Wei Y, Huang Y, Yao D

“…Knockdown ATF5 expression in cervical cancer cell lines was constructed using lentivirus-mediated shRNA to explore the role of ATF5 in cervical cancer through cell viability, transwell, and wound healing experiments. The expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin were investigated using quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot.Results: ATF5 was overexpressed in cervical cancer, and upregulation of ATF5 expression was associated with a poor prognosis. …”
