Abstract excerpt
CD151 belongs to the tetraspanin family and is a transmembrane glycoprotein that forms a complex with integrins. The complex is involved in cancer cell adhesion, growth, migration, and metastasis. Previous studies have shown that CD151 plays distinctly different roles in different types of cancer. Concerning this, we attempted to elucidate the roles that the N-glycosylation of CD151 plays in cell behavior. The...
