Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to develop the novel molecular targeted therapy against hepatocellular carcinoma invasion and metastasis. Although we were not able to clarify the clinical significance of expression of h-prune in hepatocellular carcinoma, we elucidated that h-prune frequently expressed in thyroid cancers and had an essential role in anaplastic thyroid cancer cell invasion and metastasis.
