Molecular Mechanism of Chemoresistance by Astrocyte Elevated Gene-1
13 Apr 2010
Abstract excerpt
Our recent findings show that astrocyte elevated gene-1 (AEG-1) is overexpressed in >90% of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples, and AEG-1 plays a central role in regulating development and progression of HCC. In the present study, we elucidate a molecular mechanism of AEG-1-induced chemoresistance, an important characteristic of aggressive cancers. AEG-1 increases the expression of multidrug resistance...
