“…Increase in expression of OASL in oral cancer tissue with negative association with ATM Biomarker [36] Oral squamous cell carcinoma The reports claimed that some ISGs including IFI6, IFI27 and RSAD2 showed anti-apoptotic roles by directly inhibiting the apoptosis pathway such as arresting the cell cycle leading to inhibition of apoptosis [27,50,51]. For example, IFI6 is shown to directly inhibit the TRAIL-induced extrinsic apoptotic pathway [52], whereas MX1 activates PHMG-P to indirectly block the apoptotic process [31].…”
