TF has recently been found to be expressed highly in certain types of malignant tumors. It has also been reported to be involved in systemic coagulopathy in cancer patients and in the pro

## Abstract Both the urokinase‐type plasminogen activator (uPA) and the uPA receptor (uPAR) play important roles with regard to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression and metastasis. Notably, the stromal cell‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) is an important chemokine involved in HCC pathology. However,
## Abstract Chondrosarcoma is a type of highly malignant tumor with a potent capacity to invade locally and cause distant metastasis. Chondrosarcoma shows a predilection for metastasis to the lungs. The stromal cell‐derived factor 1 (SDF‐1), constitutively secreted by human lung epithelium cells, h
## Abstract The production of chemokine stromal cell‐derived factor (SDF)‐1 is significantly higher in synovial fluid of patients with osteoarthritis (OA). IL‐6 is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a central role in both OA and rheumatoid arthritis. However, the effects of SDF‐1α on human synov
