Abstract:
Tumor metastasis and recurrence have become a key to curative effect and long-term survival, and a hotspot of eurrent clinical oncology research. Recently, a survey of extracellular matrix protein 1 (ECM1) expression in different tumors indicated that ECM1, although not tumor specific, is significantly el-evated in many malignant epithelial tumors that gives rise to metastases, emphasizing its relevance in the cancer process. Herein, this article reviews the research progress of ECM1 in tumor.
