Research Abstract |
Our results of epidermal keratinocytes show that podoplanin is associated with the regulatory mechanism of cell adhesion and self-renewal potency. This mechanism reflects both increased proliferating pool and increased transition into differentiation process of keratinocytes in prosiatic epidermis. In addition, we revealed the novel cell density-dependent PDPN-induction mechanism in squamous cell carcinoma cell-lines, which might play an important role in tumor progression process.
