Expression of connective tissue growth factor in male breast cancer: clinicopathologic correlations and prognostic value.
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) is a member of the CCN family of secreted proteins that are believed to play an important role in the development of neoplasia. In particular, CTGF has been reported to play an important role in mammary tumorigenesis and to have prognostic value in female...
