ALCAM Dynamically Regulates Tumor Cell Adhesion Through Differential Proteolysis and a Novel Binding Partner, Tetraspanin CD151
Metastasis persists as a significant unsolved hurdle in cancer treatment, with greater than 90% of cancer-related deaths attributed to metastasis. In order for cells to successfully metastasize, they must dynamically regulate cell adhesion. However, cell adhesion molecules are rarely mutated or dele...
