## Abstract We studied __in vitro__ effects of glycogen synthase kinase 3Ξ² (GSK3Ξ²)βinhibitor lithium on the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells. Lithium induced strong growth inhibition (>70%) in 75% (__n__ = 9 of 12) of cell lines, apparently independent from the status of major genes t
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Akt/protein kinase B (PKB), which is included in phosphatidyl inositolβ3βOH kinase (PI3K) signaling, controls many intracellular processes, such as the suppression of apoptosis and the promotion of the cell cycle. Therefore, the authors investigated phosphorylated Akt (Se
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene __PTEN__/__MMAC1__/__TEP1__, located on chromosome 10q23, is a common event in advanced stages of diverse human malignancies. However, the prognostic role of __PTEN__ expression in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has
