Mierke et al. reported in 2004 that CD24 enhances cell invasion through different pathways, such as increasing contractility and stimulating cell adhesion to fibronectin and collagen I and IV.109 However, a later study showed that intracellular CD24 suppresses tumor cell invasion and metastasis by influencing the posttranscriptional regulation of BART via G3BP RNase activity.110. Here, CD24 is linked to neoplasm.
