Abstract excerpt
We investigated the expression and genomic alteration of nm23-H1 (which encodes a nucleoside diphosphate, kinase A) in 12 human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) and four hepatoma cell lines. The expression of nm23-H1 protein was significantly reduced in HCCs with intrahepatic metastasis (72%) com...
