AKT1 and hepatocellular carcinoma: Previous researches have found that NCAPG was tightly related with the occurrence and development of several cancers, such as Gong et al. who found that NCAPG promoted the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma through PI3K/AKT signaling [9] and Zhang et al. also who identified that NCAPG could induce the proliferation in cardia adenocarcinoma via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway [10].
