FAM171B stabilizes vimentin and enhances CCL2-mediated TAM infiltration to promote bladder cancer progression.
Title: FAM171B stabilizes vimentin and enhances CCL2-mediated TAM infiltration to promote bladder cancer progression.
FAM171B is a novel polyglutamine protein widely expressed in the mammalian brain.
Title: FAM171B is a novel polyglutamine protein widely expressed in the mammalian brain.
FAM171B expression is up-regulated in oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer cell line. Transfection of miR-483-3p mimics markedly decreases the levels of FAM171B and restores oxaliplatin responsiveness, and this alteration enhances cell apoptosis and weakens cell migration. Knockdown of FAM171B in oxaliplatin-resistant colorectal cancer cell line sensitizes its reaction of the treatment with oxaliplatin.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
