Folliculin interacting protein 1 (FNIP1) primarily participates in regulating cellular energy metabolism and is associated with Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome. Although FNIP1 has been demonstrated to function as both a tumor suppressor and promoter, its role in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. Our study demonstrated a significant downregulation of FNIP1 in CRC, correlating with shorter overall and disease-specific survival. FNIP1 may potentially serve as an independent prognostic factor in CRC. Moreover, FNIP1 inhibited CRC progression
