MUC4, a Multifunctional Transmembrane Glycoprotein, Induces Oncogenic Transformation of NIH3T3 Mouse Fibroblast Cells
14 Nov 2008
Abstract excerpt
Numerous studies have established the association of MUC4 with the progression of cancer and metastasis. An aberrant expression of MUC4 is reported in precancerous lesions, indicating its early involvement in the disease process; however, its precise role in cellular transformation has not been explored. MUC4 contains many unique domains and is proposed to affect cell signaling pathways and behavior of the tumor...
