ABCA1 and cancer cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis.

Cancer type	Cancer cell proliferation, invasion and metastasis	(Refs.)
Prostate cancer	High levels of cholesterol can modulate the ability of cells to migrate	(49)
Breast cancer	Reduced expression of ABCA1 in breast cancer appears to be associated with poor prognosis	(46)
Non-small cell lung carcinoma	Upregulation of the expression level of ABCA1 enhances drug resistance	(45)
Lung adenocarcinoma	Overexpression of ABCA1 significantly inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells	(53)
