7 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
We and others recently identified the gene metadherin (MTDH) as a functional driver in multiple aspects of cancer progression. It is overexpressed in cancer cells originating from a variety of tissues, partially due to DNA amplification of the chromosomal 8q22 region where this gene resides. The rapidly accumulated data from MTDH studies of the past several years have documented its role in tumorigenesis,...
