Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide with a high incidence rate. Therefore, the molecular basis of colorectal tumorigenesis and evolution must be clarified. Structure-specific recognition protein 1 (SSRP1) is involved in transcriptional regulation, DNA damage repair, and cell cycle regulation and has been confirmed to be highly expressed in various tumor tissues, including colorectal cancer. | SSRP1 influences colorectal cancer cell growth and apoptosis via the AKT pathway
