Neuron-specific enolase promotes stem cell-like characteristics of small-cell lung cancer by downregulating NBL1 and activating the BMP2/Smad/ID1 pathway

Abstract Little is known about the biological functions of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) as a specific biomarker for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Herein, we elucidate the effect and mechanism of NSE on SCLC stem cell-like characteristics. Upregulated NSE expression was observed in spheroid cells....
