Metastasis-associated Protein 1 Nuclear Expression is Closely Associated with Tumor Progression and Angiogenesis in Patients with Esophageal Squamous Cell Cancer

Background The purposes of the present study were to detect the expression of metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) in patients with esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC), and to evaluate the relevance of MTA1 protein expression to the tumor progression, angiogenesis, and prognosis.
