Voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels, initially characterized in excitable cells, have been shown to be aberrantly expressed non-excitable cancer tissues and cells from epithelial origins such as breast, lung, prostate, colon, cervix, whereas they are not cognate non-cancer tissues. Their activity was demonstrated promote aggressive invasive potencies of both vitro vivo, their deregulated expres...
