These results suggested that the data mining based on online databases was an effective method in finding novel target in cancer research, and the miR-33a and CAND1 played an important role in lung cancer proliferation and cell migration.
Cullin-associated NEDD8-dissociated 1 (CAND1) plays a vital role in regulating the activity of Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), which are frequently dysregulated in cancer.
These results highlight the role of altered SCF components in cancer in general and encourage further studies to explore the SCF-CAND1 axis for the development of novel predictive biomarkers and therapeutic approaches in prostate cancer.
