Possible mechanisms of SFN role in tumorigenesis. Although SFN dependent on P53 induces the cell cycle arrest, it can prevent apoptosis by sequestrating Bad and Bax, which symbolizes an excellent capability of SFN as an oncogene [65]. In addition, it may have roles in proliferation, growth, motility, differentiation, and metabolism through PI3K/Akt pathway [61].
