Integrin α6 as an invasiveness marker for hepatitis B viral X-driven hepatocellular carcinoma.

CONCLUSIONS: This study found a significant association between HBV and integrin α6, which may be responsible for early migration and invasion of HCC. Thus, integrin α6 is a predictive marker for tumor recurrence and invasiveness of HBV-driven HCC. PMID: 30010110 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
