The hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6) and FOXA2 are key regulators in colorectal liver metastases
5 Feb 2007
Abstract excerpt
The molecular causes leading to secondary liver malignancies are unknown. Here we report regulation of major hepatic nuclear factors in human colorectal liver metastases and primary colonic cancer. Notably, the genes coding for HNF6, HNF1beta, and C/EBPgamma were selectively regulated in liver metastases. We therefore studied protein expression of regulated transcription factors and found unacetylated HNF6 to be...
