BUB1 drives the occurrence and development of bladder cancer by mediating the STAT3 signaling pathway
Abstract Background The incidence of bladder urothelial carcinoma (UC), a common malignancy of the urinary tract, is approximately three times higher in men than in women. High expression of the mitotic kinase BUB1 is associated with the occurrence and development of several cancers, although the re...
