Direct integrin-mediated cell adhesion to ECM components in the space of Disse appears to be required for the successful liver metastatic formation of colon cancer. In the present study, human colon cancer HT-29 cells were transfected by liposome with integrin-β1 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (ASODN). The integrin-β1 gene expression in HT-29 cel...展开更多
