Fibronectin in human hepatocellular carcinoma.
Human liver specimens with hepatocellular carcinoma were studied for distribution of fibronectin by immunofluorescence staining. Fibronectin was detected in the cytoplasm and/or on the cell surface in certain cases, which is in contrast to the observations in vivo for hepatocytes of normal and other fibrotic livers. The present finding is also in contrast to those for various other carcinomas so far reported.
