Wnt Signaling Pathway Related Genes In Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an extremely difficult disease to manage and one of the ten most common cancers in Malaysia. However, the molecular mechanisms that contribute to tumour progression in hepatocarcinogenesis remain unknown. In recent years, the evidence that the Wnt signaling pathw...
