Objectives: To evaluate the expression of TAZ and its role in tumor invasion and metastasis in human glioma.
Methods: The expression of TAZ protein was measured in 48 samples of surgically resected human glioma and 13 samples of normal brain tissues using immunohistochemistry. TAZ was knocked down by a retrovirus-mediated TAZ shRNA in a glioma cell line, SNB19.
