Role of human HGFIN/nmb in breast cancer.

Breast cancer research : BCR - 1 Jan 2007

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: HGFIN, previously identified as nmb, and its homolog osteoactivin are single transmembrane proteins that are expressed in differentiated immune cells. These proteins exhibit properties that could potentiate tumorigenesis or decrease invasiveness. These seemingly opposing roles of HGFIN suggest that this protein might be central to malignancies and might also behave as a tumor suppressor. Consistent...
