ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a gene that encodes proteins associated with liver neoplastic diseases, such as liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Significantly, these proteins are not expressed in normal, non-neoplastic liver. In accordance with the present invention there also are provided antibodies that are capable of binding to the invention proteins, as well as methods and kits for screening for liver neoplastic diseases.
