Interferon-inducible protein, IFIX, has tumor-suppressive effects in oral squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract IFIX, a newly discovered member of the interferon-inducible HIN-200 family, has been identified as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer; however, the involvement of IFIX in oral cancer are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate a relationship between the level of IFIX expression and the inv...
