We identified 7 known genes (focal adhesion kinase, deleted in colon cancer, guanine binding inhibitory protein α, glutamine synthetase, ornithine aminotransferase, M130, and pepsinogen C) and 2 previously unknown genes as being overexpressed in HCC, and 1 gene (decorin) as suppressed in HCC. Here, PGC is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
