CD109 acts as a gatekeeper of the epithelial trait by suppressing epithelial to mesenchymal transition in squamous cell carcinoma cells in vitro
6 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
There is increasing evidence that the expression of CD109, a GPI-anchored cell surface protein is dysregulated in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). However, the functional role of CD109 in SCC progression is poorly understood. In current study, we demonstrate that CD109 is a critical regulator of epithelial phenotype in SSC cells. CD109 levels inversely correlate with TGF-β signaling, EMT, migration, and invasion in...
