SOX4 Cancer Research Results

SOX4, SRY‐box transcription factor 4: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
SOX4 belongs to the SOX (SRY-related HMG-box) family of transcription factors and plays a critical role in embryonic development, differentiation, and cell survival.
• In cancer, SOX4 has been implicated in processes such as epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), invasion, metastasis, and resistance to apoptosis.

In many cancers—including breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers—high SOX4 expression is generally associated with a more aggressive tumor phenotype and poorer clinical outcomes.
