| Research Abstract |
Both mRNA and protein levels of RDBP were significantly higher in HCC than in non-HCC liver tissue, and that these levels were also significantly higher in HCC with PVI than in HCC without PVI. Multivariate analysis revealed that RDBP protein levels were an independent risk factor for early intrahepatic recurrence of HCC within two years of surgery. Knockdown of RDBP protein significantly inhibited the proliferation and invasion of cells invitro. These data demonstrate that RDBP is related to the metastatic potential of HCC, suggesting a possible candidate for prevention of HCC cell metastasis.
