Notably, when we looked at protein expression levels of EpCam, a protein that recently acquired increased interest for its multiple roles in enhancing tumorigenesis [32], and has been reported to be involved in the aggressive phenotype of ATCs [31], we found that PATZ1 expression affects hyper-glycosylation of the protein associated with the EGF treatment of the cells. The gene discussed is EPCAM; the disease is Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, musculocontractural type.
