DLEC1 Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

DLEC1: May act as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting cell proliferation. DLEC1 silencing due to promoter methylation and aberrant transcription are implicated in the development of different cancers, including esophageal (ESCR), renal and lung cancers (LNCR). Defects in DLEC1 are a cause of lung cancer (LNCR). A common malignancy affecting tissues of the lung. The most common form of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be divided into 3 major histologic subtypes: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, and large cell lung cancer. NSCLC is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and has a poor prognosis. DLEC1 silencing due to promoter methylation and aberrant transcription are implicated in the development of lung cancer. Defects in DLEC1 are a cause of esophageal cancer (ESCR). A malignancy of the esophagus. The most common types are esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Cancer of the esophagus remains a devastating disease because it is usually not detected until it has progressed to an advanced incurable stage. DLEC1 silencing due to promoter methylation and aberrant transcription are implicated in the development of esophageal cancer. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
