From the abstract, note these points on the null presence of MAG in normal tissues: <<Rapid amplification of cDNA ends PCR yielded a 536-bp MAG fragment in HCC, macroregenerative liver nodules with dysplasia, and liver cirrhosis but not in normal liver or placenta. By RT-PCR, MAG expression was not found in 12 different normal tissues but found in 46 of 51 (90%) premalignant and malignant tissues of various sites. Embryonic liver and brain were positive for MAG expression together with tumors from the same organs, but the corresponding normal adult tissues were negative.>> Thanks Baudwalker.
