Peptides have advantages over antibodies in terms of deep tissue penetration, low
immunogenicity, and cost-effective production, but they have short circulation time and poor …

Globally, HIV/AIDS and cancer are increasingly public health problems and continue to exist
as comorbidities. The sub-Saharan African region has the largest number of HIV infections …

Aberrant activation of Wingless-type (Wnt)/β-catenin signaling is widespread in human
cervical cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms of Wnt activation and the therapeutic …

Background/Aims: Members of the CD44 family are transmembrane glycoproteins which act
mainly as receptors for hyaluronan. We have examined the expression of CD44s and …

Bladder cancer stem (initiating) cell has not been isolated now, and no one verified its
persistence experimentally. The aim of this study was to conclude the persistence of bladder …

The cell surface glycoprotein CD44 and its ligand, hyaluronan (HA), enhance growth and
metastatic capacity of melanoma cells in vitro, but their clinical significance in primary …

Immunolocalization of E‐cadherin (E‐cad), α‐catenin, β‐catenin, and CD44 has rarely been
investigated in human cholangiocarcinoma (CC). We, therefore, immunohistochemically …

Abstract p38 kinases activated by growth factors, hormones, and environmental stresses
exert diverse functions in regulating normal and malignant cell pathophysiology. Enhanced …

BACKGROUND Isoforms of the adhesion molecule CD44 are involved in carcinogenesis
and the metastatic cascade of tumor cells by increasing the affinity of malignant cells to their …

Objectives To determine the correlation between the expression of CD44 variant exon 6 (v6)
and the clinicopathological features of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas …
