High mobility group protein A2 (HMGA2) is a transcription factor that plays an important role in the invasion and metastasis of gastric carcinoma (GC). The term vasculogenic mimicry (VM) refers to the unique ability of aggressive tumour cells to mimic the pattern of embryonic vasculogenic networks. However, the relationship between HMGA2 and VM formation remains unclear. In the present study, we examined concomitant HMGA2 expression and VM in 228 human GC samples and 4 GC cell lines. Our data in ...[more]
