Cytoplasmic LRIG2 expression is associated with poor oligodendroglioma patient survival
13 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
The three leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) genes encode integral membrane proteins. Of these, LRIG1 negatively regulates growth factor signaling and is implicated as a tumor suppressor in certain malignancies. In astrocytic tumors, the subcellular distribution of LRIG proteins is associated with specific clinicopathological features and patient survival. The role of LRIG proteins in...
