In the last decade, much data has been generated concerning the molecular mechanisms of
lymphangiogenesis and its significance in pathological conditions. This was mainly due to …

The mucin-type transmembrane glycoprotein podoplanin (also known as T1α, gp38 or
Aggrus) is well established as one of the lymphatic-specific markers. Podoplanin was also …

The membrane glycoprotein podoplanin is expressed by several types of human cancers
and might be associated with their malignant progression. Its exact biological function and …

BACKGROUND. Podoplanin is a mucin‐like glycoprotein that is important in
lymphangiogenesis but not blood vessel formation. Recent studies suggested a potential …

Background Recent studies have showed podoplanin expression in several tumors, which
has been associated with lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis. Podoplanin …

Podoplanin, a type-1 transmembrane glycoprotein, was originally named due to its
expression in renal podocytes of rats. It was subsequently detected in a variety of normal …

Objective: Podoplanin, a known lymphatic endothelial cell marker, has been reported to be
expressed in various types of cancer. To elucidate the expression of podoplanin in …

Podoplanin is a small membrane glycoprotein with a large number of O-glycoside chains
and therefore it belongs to mucin-type proteins. It can be found on the surface of many types …

Podoplanin is a mucin-like glycoprotein expressed in the lymphatic endothelium. It has been
suggested to play a role in lymphangiogenesis, since podoplanin deficient mice were found …

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are well-known to be part of the tumor
microenvironment. This heterogeneous population of cells of the tumor microenvironment …
