HAPLN1 was detected at much higher levels in HCCs than in non-tumor livers in our cohort (Figure 7A), as well as in 80 HCCs with respect to 307 non-tumor hepatitis/cirrhosis livers in a public DASL microarray dataset (GSE10143) [12] (Figure 7B). The gene discussed is HAPLN1; the disease is neoplasm.
