| Research Abstract |
Adipose tissue inhibited the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma-derived cancer stem cells (CSCs) and did not affect apoptosis. The effect between subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue about the migration is controversialimmunohistochemically, but there is no significant difference in the expression ofmigration-related molecules. Adipokine production levels differ between subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue, but the production level is not different with or without CSCs.
