Proteomic analysis of CD44(+) and CD44(−) gastric cancer cells
CD44 is a cell surface protein and it is widely used as a cancer stem cell marker in various cancer types including gastric cancer. We conducted proteomic analysis in CD44(+) and CD44(-) gastric cancer cells to understand characteristics of CD44(+) and CD44(-) cells.

Intracellular Domain Fragment of CD44 Alters CD44 Function in Chondrocytes [PDF]
The hyaluronan receptor CD44 undergoes sequential proteolytic cleavage at the cell surface. The initial cleavage of the CD44 extracellular domain is followed by a second intramembranous cleavage of the residual CD44 fragment, liberating the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail of CD44. In this study conditions that promote CD44 cleavage resulted in a diminished

Human breast milk stem cells: a new challenge for perinatologists
The lactating mammary gland contains a stem cells population with multilineage potentialities. Recently it was also shown that breast milk contains a heterogeneous population of stem cells that have the potential to differentiate in vitro, under the ...

CD44 Suppression Improved the Chemosensitivity of HT-29 Colorectal Cancer Cells to 5-Fluorouracil and Inhibited Cell Migration [PDF]
Purpose: CD44 plays a pivotal role through tumorigenesis by regulating cancer cell metastasis, stemness, and chemosensitivity and is considered a promising therapeutic target for human cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC).

CD44: survival and metastasis in chondrosarcoma [PDF]
Recent studies have shown abnormal expression of CD44s and some of its isoforms in many human malignancies, but little is known about the presence of CD44 in chondrosarcoma. In this study the expression of CD44s and two variant isoforms was evaluated. It was assumed that abnormalities in these receptor proteins may be associated with clinical outcome ...
