TROP2 promotes cell proliferation and migration in osteosarcoma through PI3K/AKT signaling.

Human trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2) has been noted to serve an important role in the proliferation and migration of various types of human cancers. However, the potential role and the molecular mechanisms of TROP2 in osteosarcoma (OS) remain largely unclear. In the present study, high expression of TROP2 in human OS tissues and cell lines was observed.
