Research progress of SPARC in esophageal cancer / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is expressed in esophageal cancer abnormally.On the one hand,recent studies show that high SPARC expression is correlated with progression and metastasis of esophageal cancer.On the other hand,high SPARC expression increases chemosensitivity and improves short-term efficacy in patients.
