Source: CGL-Driver Genes
Type: TSG
Caspase-8 is a unique member of caspases with a dual role in cell death and survival. Caspase-8 expression is often lost in some tumors, but increased in others, indicating a potential pro-survival function in cancer.
Caspase-8 (Casp8) acts as an initiator in cell apoptosis signaling. However, the role of Casp8 in tuning the tumor immune microenvironment remains controversial due to the complicated crosstalk between immune-tolerogenic apoptotic cell death and immunogenic cell death cascades.
NPC, Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC): Click to Expand ⟱
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma, or nasopharynx cancer, is the most common cancer originating in the nasopharynx, most commonly in the postero-lateral nasopharynx or pharyngeal recess, accounting for 50% of cases.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a type of cancer that originates in the epithelial cells lining the nasopharynx, which is the upper part of the throat located behind the nose and above the soft palate.
-(NPC) is a malignant tumor which is commonly found in East Asia and Africa.
