According to a 2009 Chinese study by Li X et al. [59], GP73 tests have higher sensitivity and specificity for early detection of HCC than α-FP (sensitivity, 62% vs. 25%, and specificity, 88% vs. 97%; p < 0.0001, respectively), and GP73 serum levels increased with the malignant potential of CLD [58]. Here, GOLM1 is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma.
