LASP1 and hepatocellular carcinoma: In this work, based on various cohorts, we assessed the correlations between GLUD1 with IL-32 gene expression levels in HCC tissues (Figure 2G and H), between SYVN1 and LASP1 gene expression levels in HCC tissues (Figure 5N), and between GLUD1 gene expression level and tumor size in HBV-associated HCC (Figure 6E).
