GPM6A expression is markedly suppressed in hepatocellular carcinoma and suppresses proliferation and migration of hepatoma cells. Moreover, its low expression is most likely attributed to upregulated miRNA-96-5p but not gene mutation or changes in methylation. These findings indicate that GPM6A may function as an inhibitory gene in chronic information, fibrosis and oncogenic transformation.
