    Therapy target
  • may be a molecular target for new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (Yamaji 2008)
  • elevated expression is associated with metastasis and poor survival of pateints with osteogenic sarcoma and may be a therapeutic target (Fuchs 2007)
