Activated Wnt signaling promotes growth and progression of AFP-producing gastric cancer in preclinical models

摘要

BackgroundCharacterized by elevated AFP levels in serum, AFP-producing gastric cancer (APGC) is a very special type of gastric cancer (GC) that is difficult to treat and has poor prognosis. However, little is known about the role of AFP in GC, which was investigated in this study with in vitro and in vivo experiments.
