Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC) are common primary hepatic malignancies. Their immunohistological differentiation using specific markers is pivotal for treatment and prognosis. We found alphavbeta6 integrin strongly upregulated in biliary fibrosis, but its expression in primary and secondary liver tumours is unknown. Here, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic applicability of alphavbeta6 integrin in differentiating primary liver cancers.
