Overexpression and small molecule-triggered downregulation of CIP2A in lung cancer.
<h4>Background</h4>Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide, with a five-year overall survival rate of only 15%. Cancerous inhibitor of PP2A (CIP2A) is a human oncoprotein inhibiting PP2A in many human malignancies. However, whether CIP2A can be a new drug target for l...
