Prospero‐related homeobox 1 drives angiogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma through selectively activating interleukin‐8 expression
24 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Angiogenesis has been proven to play an important role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the molecular mechanism underlying HCC angiogenesis is not well understood. In this study, Prospero-related homeobox 1 (PROX1) was identified as a novel proangiogenic factor in HCC cell lines and tissues. A strong positive correlation was found between the levels of PROX1 and microvessel density...
