Secretory clusterin promotes hepatocellular carcinoma progression by facilitating cancer stem cell properties via AKT/GSK-3β/β-catenin axis

Abstract Background To explore the modulatory effects and mechanism of secretory clusterin (sCLU) on cancer stem cell (CSC) properties in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods The effects of sCLU repression or overexpression on chemoresistance, migration, invasion, and tumor growth were detected b...
