Does high Expression of GRP78 promote Invasion and Metastases in Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma?
The present study demonstrated that GRP78 plays important roles in invasion and metastasis of ESCC, indicating that GRP78 might be used as a potential prognostic and therapeutic marker in patients with ESCC by modulating the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9.
Virtual non-contrast images derived from dual-energy-CT allow for accurate characterisation of lipid-rich adrenal adenomas and can help to avoid additional follow-up imaging.
