Correlations between IGF-IR Expression and Clinicopathological Factors and Prognosis in Patients with Lung Adenocarcinoma
Background and objective The incidence of lung adenocarcinoma increases rapidly, and IGF-IR is the key mediator of several growth factors signal transduction, therefore it plays an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of cancer cell. The aim of this study is to detect the expressi...
