  • ApoD expression is inversely correlated with tumor growth in colorectal cancer (CRC), suggesting its potential as a prognostic marker and therapeutic tool.
  • The study examined the relationship between lipid peroxidation, oxidative stress-related gene expression, and ApoD levels in CRC tissues, finding that ApoD protein decreases as the tumor progresses.
  • While ApoD does not affect cell proliferation or apoptosis in normal conditions, it promotes apoptosis in CRC cells under oxidative stress, highlighting its role in the tumor microenvironment.
