pubmed:abstractText
Glutamine synthetase (GS) catalyzes the synthesis of glutamine, a major energy source of cells, and is upregulated in a subset of human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). GS expression may be related to tumor recurrence, since GS-expressing tumors have a growth advantage in that they are independent of the extracellular glutamine supply. However, there are no studies concerning the prognostic value of GS expression in patients with HCC.
