Fig. 6From: Matrix stiffness-upregulated LOXL2 promotes fibronectin production, MMP9 and CXCL12 expression and BMDCs recruitment to assist pre-metastatic niche formationThe proposed mechanism by which higher matrix stiffness upregulates LOXL2 expression in HCC cells, and the secreted LOXL2 promotes fibronectin production, MMP9 and CXCL12 expression and BMDCs recruitment to assist pre-metastatic niche formationBack to article page
