“…Although REV7 expression is low in most normal human tissues except for the testis, its expression is relatively high in various human tumor tissues, including colon, ovarian, breast, esophageal, lung, and skin cancers, gliomas, diffuse large B cell lymphomas, and testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) [ 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 ]. REV7 expression levels are correlated with cell proliferation ability represented by Ki-67 labeling indexes in small cell lung carcinomas and malignant melanomas, with metastases in breast and lung cancers, with tumor thickness in malignant melanomas, and with tumor sizes of gliomas [ 89 , 92 , 93 , 94 , 95 ]. There is a significant association between high levels of REV7 expression and poor prognosis in several tumors, including colon, breast, lung, gastric, and advanced ovarian cancers, diffuse large B cell lymphomas, and advanced bone and soft tissue sarcomas, suggesting the utility of REV7 as a biomarker for cancer prognosis [ 85 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 94 , 96 , 97 ].…”
