TGF-β1 expression is associated with invasion and metastasis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma
Biol. Res; 48 (), 2015
BACKGROUND: Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β is involved in many physiologic processes, it often promotes metastasis, and its high expression is correlated with poor prognosis. In the present study, we analyzed the correlation between transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1) expression and prognosi...
