Glycoproteins from the tumor tissues that could bind lectin ConA, LCA, WGA, or MPL, were found to be significantly differentially expressed between patients who had undergone postoperative HCC recurrence (recurrence group) and those without tumor-recurrence (non-recurrence group) during the follow-up period (Supplemental Fig. S2A and B). The gene discussed is ART4; the disease is neoplasm.
