Elevated expression of NFE2L3 promotes the development of gastric cancer through epithelial-mesenchymal transformation

Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant tumour with high mortality, but research on its molecular mechanisms remain limited. This study is the first to explore the biological role of nuclear factor NFE2L3 (nuclear factor, erythroid 2 like 3) in GC. We used Western blot and RT–qPCR to detect gene expressi...
