Research Abstract |
Genetic analysis was performed using human osteosarcoma samples, failed to detect any apparent genetic alterations. Using osteosarcoma cell line, we isolated the genes involving the development and progression of osteosarcoma. Overexpression and knockdown of the gene demonstrated its function in cell proliferation, migration and invasion.
