Fibrinogen Alpha Chain Knockout Promotes Tumor Growth and Metastasis through Integrin–AKT Signaling Pathway in Lung Cancer
23 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Fibrinogen is an extracellular matrix protein composed of three polypeptide chains with fibrinogen alpha (FGA), beta (FGB) and gamma (FGG). Although fibrinogen and its related fragments are involved in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis, their functional roles are incompatible. A recent genome-scale screening reveals that loss of FGA affects the acceleration of tumor growth and metastasis of lung cancer,...
