- * In a study of 22 iCCA patients with MetS, there was a noticeable increase in the deposition of specific ECM proteins, such as osteopontin (OPN), which were associated with greater cancer cell movement and stem cell-like characteristics.
- * The findings suggest that OPN overexpression is a key difference between MetS-related iCCA and non-MetS iCCA, indicating its potential as a predictive biomarker and a target for future treatment in patients with MetS and iCCA
