Molecular Characterization of Severin from Clonorchis sinensis Excretory/Secretory Products and Its Potential Anti-apoptotic Role in Hepatocarcinoma PLC Cells
Clonorchis sinensis (C. sinensis) has afflicted more than 35 million people in world and approximately 15 million in China, creating a socio-economic burden in epidemic regions. The infection of C. sinensis is highly related to cholangiocarcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It has been docu...
