Abstract excerpt
Amphoterin-induced gene and open reading frame 2 (AMIGO2) was previously identified as a driver gene for liver metastasis. AMIGO2 has also been found to be a prognostic factor for cancer patients with a low frequency of spontaneous liver metastasis. Here, we investigated whether AMIGO2 expression affects the acquisition of cancer stem cell-like properties in cancer cells by using human gastric (MKN45) and colon...
