Expression of hepatocyte growth factor and c‐MET in skull base chordoma

Abstract

In the current study, c-MET expression was a common event, and was found to be correlated with CAM5.2 expression, younger patient age, and a favorable prognosis in patients with skull base chordoma. However, HGF/c-MET paracrine signaling also may contribute to its invasive ability, especially in recurrent lesions.
