Abstract excerpt
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 9 (ADAM9) functions as a membranous bridge, forming cell-cell and cell-matrix connections that regulate tumor aggressiveness in various cancer types, including prostate cancer (PCa). Elevated ADAM9 levels in PCa were identified as a prognostic marker for biochemical recurrence (BCR) in patients who had undergone a radical prostatectomy (RP). However,...
