PD-ECGF is up-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma and the corresponding hepatitis liver. The PD-ECGF concentrations in hepatocellular carcinoma correlated positively with microvessel density, lower differentiation, yet not with patients' prognosis. The concentrations of PD-ECGF in the corresponding hepatitis liver correlated positively with the degree of active hepatitis.
