Previous studies indicated that it mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 and is likely involved in inflammatory responses. However, its effects on oncogenesis are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of ASB3 on the growth and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) %K Ankyrin repeat and SOCS box protein 3 (ASB3) %K Colorectal cancer %K Epithelial-mesenchymal transition %K Cell proliferation %K Tumor metastasis %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5237493/
