Abstract:
Multifunctional proteglycan, versican, is recently recognized as a gene related to tumor metastasis. Versican may maintain or inhibit cell growth, affect cell adherence and regulate the mutual interaction between cells or cell and matrix. Higher expression of versican always correlates with worse prognosis.
