BSG and neoplasm: CD147/EMMPRIN has been shown to be involved in the regulation of tumor cell invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, anti-apoptosis, adhesion and facilitation of drug resistance through its association with various proteins1, such as MMP-219, MMP-920, Ki-6714, VEGF19, microvessel density19, C-erbB-212, S100A431, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 1732, lewis y antigen6, fascin43, caveolin-148, hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha9, cyclophilin A9, CD44v654, cyclooxygenase-254, receptor for activated C kinase 155 and metabolism related factors like MCT-156, MCT-456, and glucose transporter -157.
