HOXC8 impacts lung tumorigenesis by preventing pyroptotic cell death through the suppression of caspase-1 expression

Abstract Homeobox C8 (HOXC8) is a transcription factor preferentially overexpressed in a large percentage of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). To investigate the function of HOXC8 in NSCLC, we showed that knockdown of HOXC8 led to massive NSCLC cell death in a mechanism of pyroptosis because bo...
