Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) Over-Expression and Prognostic Implication in Pediatric Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is over-expressed and is correlated with aggressiveness in adult hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Inhibition of FAK decreases HCC invasiveness by down-regulating Enhancer of Zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), an epigenetic controller, that acts in transcriptional repression of a larg...
