HAb18G/CD147 inhibits starvation‐induced autophagy in human hepatoma cell SMMC7721 with an involvement of Beclin 1 down‐regulation
26 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
HAb18G/CD147, a transmembrane glycoprotein highly expressed in various types of malignant cells, mainly functions as an inducer of matrix metalloproteinases to promote tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. However, whether there are other mechanisms underlying the role of HAb18G/CD147 in tumor progression remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the functional effects of HAb18G/CD147 on autophagy...
