Frequent Expression of Midkine Gene in Esophageal Cancer Suggests a Potential Usage of Its Promoter for Suicide Gene Therapy
We have examined the expression of midkine (MK), a neurotrophic factor with heparin‐binding activity, in human esophageal cancer cells. Seven esophageal cell lines tested expressed the transcript and 8 out of 14 human esophageal tumor specimens were positively stained with anti‐MK antibody, while su...
