Epithelial membrane protein 3 is frequently shown as promoter methylation and functions as a tumor suppressor gene in non-small cell lung cancer
Epithelial membrane protein 3 (EMP3) is a typical member of the epithelial membrane protein (EMP) family which has been reported to be a tumor suppressor gene in neuroblastomas and gliomas and recently reported to be commonly repressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell lines. However...

Zusammenfassung: | Epithelial membrane protein 3 (EMP3) is a typical member of the epithelial membrane protein (EMP) family which has been reported to be a tumor suppressor gene in neuroblastomas and gliomas and recently reported to be commonly repressed in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cell lines. However, the expression and clinical significance of EMP3 protein in lung cancer have not yet been elucidated. In this article, we detected that the expression of EMP3 in non-small cell lung cancer was significantly lower than the expression of normal lung tissues (P |
