PXDN and breast carcinoma: PXDN, also known as MG50, is a peroxidase associated with the endoplasmatic reticulum, and expressed in melanoma, breast cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, renal carcinoma as well as metastatic gliomas [4,38-40] Silencing of PXDN abolished the adhesion-promoting effect of endogenous HO-1 in BeWo (LMP) and 607B (MSCV-HO1) cells (Fig. 5 and Fig. 6), while PXDN knockdown did not affect cell adhesion in HO-1 deficient cells.
