EMMPRIN, also named Basigin or CD147, which is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, has been extensively studied because it is involved in tumor cell migration and invasion [70,71,72,73], apoptosis [74,75], angiogenesis [76,77,78], and chemoresistance [79,80] in a variety of cancers (reviewed by [81]). The gene discussed is BSG; the disease is cancer.
