Notably, patients with low ARHGAP24 in early tumor stage (BCLC: 0 + A; P < 0.01) or low alpha-fetoprotein subgroups (≤ 400 ng/mL; P < 0.05) also had higher probabilities of tumor progression when compared to the patients with high ARHGAP24 (Figure 1K). The gene discussed is AFP; the disease is neoplasm.
