Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Previously, we have established a tissue-like HCC spheroid which better mirrors the biological features of tumorigenesis and metastasis. This study was to find out metastasis-associated genes between two 3D HCC spheroids with different metastasis potential using comparative PCR arrays. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two HCC spheroids derived from high-metastatic MHCC97H cells and low-metastatic Hep3B cells were...
