DSG2 expression is low in colon cancer and correlates with poor survival
BMC Gastroenterology, 2021 Background Desmoglein2 (DSG2) is a transmembrane protein that helps regulate intercellular connections and contributes to desmosome assembly. Desmosome are associated with cell adhesion junctions, which play an important role in cancer progression ...
