Immune responsive gene 1, a novel oncogene, increases the growth and tumorigenicity of glioma
10 Sept 2014
Abstract excerpt
Immune responsive gene 1 (IRG1) is highly expressed in mammalian macrophages during inflammation. However, the role of IRG1 in tumorigenesis remains unclear. In the present study, we aimed to clarify the epigenetic regulation and biological functions of IRG1 in glioma. We found that the expression level of IRG1 influenced the WHO stage in 140 glioma patients. Overexpression of IRG1 increased the growth, invasion,...
