CPAP Helps To Suppress Tumorigenesis in Oral Cancer

In addition to its indispensable role in centrosome biogenesis, a microtubule/tubulin binding protein, called centrosomal protein 4.1-associated protein (CPAP), also plays a vital role in suppressing tumorigenesis in OSCC by facilitating EGFR homeostasis.
