Upregulate KIF4A Enhances Proliferation, Invasion of Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Indicates poor prognosis Across Human Cancer Types
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most aggressive and heterogeneous cancers worldwide. Herein, we demonstrate KIF4A (Chromosome-associated kinesin KIF4A) as a potential biomarker, is up-regulated in most samples of HCC. The expression level of KIF4A in tumor tissue is significant...
