Abstract:
Ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) gene is closely associated with the development of various types of human tumors.The mainly mechanisms of RNF43 gene are mutation and aberrant expression.Activated RNF43 protein participates in the proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis through some signal pathways and influences the tumorigenesis and development in colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, which plays a role of oncogene.However, it is considered as a tumor suppressor gene in mucinous ovarian tumors and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas.
