Disease relevance of GLDN
- We present the cloning and characterization of a novel gene, CRG-L2 (Cancer related gene-Liver 2), which displays high expression in murine and human hepatocellular carcinomas [1].
High impact information on GLDN
- Its restricted expression in normal tissues and unique early upregulation during tumor development make CRG-L2 an excellent candidate as a new clinical marker of HCC [1].
- Using in situ hybridization, we show that CRG-L2 mRNA levels are increased early during the development of liver tumors in C3H/HeJ mice, and that in normal tissues CRG-L2 mRNA is restricted to the murine testis and human placenta [1].
