Expression of Metastatic Tumor Antigen 1 Splice Variant Correlates With Early Recurrence and Aggressive Features of Hepatitis B Virus–Associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Yung‐Tsung Li, Hui‐Lin Wu, Jia‐Horng Kao, Huei‐Ru Cheng, Ming‐Chih Ho, Chih‐Chiang Wang, Pei‐Jer Chen, Ding‐Shinn Chen, Chun‐Jen Liu – 25 February 2019 – Overexpression of metastatic tumor antigen 1 (MTA1) was correlated with poor prognosis of hepatitis B virus (HBV)‐associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV‐HCC). The aim of this study was to examine the clinical significance of the expression of MTA1 and its exon 4‐excluded form (MTA1dE4), the most abundant spliced variant of MTA1, in patients receiving curative resection for HBV‐HCC.
