| Reference | 9537436_2, We, therefore, immunohistochemically examined the expression of E-cad, alpha-catenin, beta-catenin, CD44 standard (CD44s), and CD44 variants (CD44v) including CD44v5, CD44v6, CD44v7-8, and CD44v10 in normal adult livers and in 47 cases of CC; and the results were then correlated with tumor grade, vascular invasion, metastasis, p53 expression, proliferative fraction (Ki-67 labeling), and c-erbB2 expression.

| Reference | 9537436_5, We found that the down-regulation of E-cad, alpha-catenin, and beta-catenin expression significantly correlated with tumor high grade, but not with vascular invasion, metastasis, p53 expression, Ki-67 labeling, or c-erbB2 expression, except for beta-catenin, the down-regulation of which was associated with c-erbB2 down-regulation.
