basic FUNCTION
  • functioning as a tumor suppressor associated with esophageal cancer
  • myopepithelial cell marker, playing an important role in the process of natural suppression of tumor invasion as it is expressed specifically in myoepithelial cells, providing a cellular barrier for the spreading cancer cells
    • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, proliferation/growth
