Co-overexpression of Met and Hepatocyte Growth Factor Promotes Systemic Metastasis in NCI-H460 Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma Cells
Complete resection of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is potentially curative, yet approximately 50% of patients are at risk for developing metastatic recurrence.

Complete resection of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is potentially curative, yet approximately 50% of patients are at risk for developing metastatic recurrence.
