Are podoplanin and ezrin involved in the invasion process of the ameloblastomas?
The association between podoplanin and ezrin in the process of odontogenic tumors invasion has been suggested, but was not studied yet. Our purpose was to investigate the relationship between podoplanin and ezrin expressions in the odontogenic epithelium

Transplantation of embryonic spleen tissue reveals a role for adult non-lymphoid cells in initiating lymphoid tissue organization [PDF]
In this report we describe a transplantation system where embryonic spleens are grafted into adult hosts. This model can be used to analyze the cellular and molecular requirements for the development and organization of splenic microenvironments.Whole ...

New trends in the study of podoplanin as a cell morphological regulator
Podoplanin is a mucin-type glycoprotein firstly identified in podocytes, which is homologous to the type I alveolar cell specific T1α-2 antigen and to the oncofetal antigen M2A recognized by the D2-40 antibody. Podoplanin possesses a platelet aggregation-

Platelet CLEC2-Podoplanin Axis as a Promising Target for Oral Cancer Treatment
Cancer tissues are not just simple masses of malignant cells, but rather complex and heterogeneous collections of cellular and even non-cellular components, such as endothelial cells, stromal cells, immune cells, and collagens, referred to as tumor ...

Lymphatic expression of CLEVER-1 in breast cancer and its relationship with lymph node metastasis [PDF]
BACKGROUND Mechanisms regulating breast cancer lymph node metastasis are unclear. Staining of CLEVER-1 (common lymphatic endothelial and vascular endothelial receptor-1) in human breast tumors was used, along with in vitro techniques, to assess ...

Podoplanin expression in the development and progression of laryngeal squamous cell carcinomas
Background Podoplanin expression is attracting interest as a marker for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. We therefore investigated the expression pattern and clinical significance of podoplanin during the development and progression of laryngeal ...

Podoplanin enhances lung cancer cell growth in vivo by inducing platelet aggregation
Podoplanin/Aggrus, known as a platelet aggregation-inducing factor, is frequently overexpressed in lung squamous cell carcinomas (LSCC) and glioblastomas among other tumours, and its expression has been reported to be correlated with poor prognosis ...

Physiological and pathophysiological aspects of blood platelet activation through CLEC-2 receptor
Platelet activating receptor CLEC-2 has been identified on platelet surface a decade ago. The only confirmed endogenous CLEC-2 agonist is podoplanin. Podoplanin is a transmembrane protein expressed by lymphatic endothelial cells, reticular fibroblastic ...
