C5a stimulates the proliferation of breast cancer cells via Akt-dependent RGC-32 gene activation.

abstract：:Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and accounts for 28% of all cancer-related deaths. The expression of the β2‑adrenergic receptor (β2‑AR), one of the stress‑inducible receptors, has been reported to be closely correlated with malignant tumors. However, the role of β2‑AR activation in human lung e...
