CD44S ASSEMBLES HYALURONAN COAT ON FILOPODIA AND EXTRACELLULAR VESICLES AND INDUCES TUMORIGENICITY OF MKN74 GASTRIC CARCINOMA CELLS

CD44s Assembles Hyaluronan Coat on Filopodia and Extracellular Vesicles and Induces Tumorigenicity of MKN74 Gastric Carcinoma Cells

CD44 is a multifunctional adhesion molecule typically upregulated in malignant, inflamed and injured tissues.Due to its ability to bind multiple ligands present in the tumor microenvironment, it promotes multiple cellular functions related to tumorigenesis.Recent data has shown that CD44 and its principal ligand hyaluronan (HA) are carried by extra

Finding Emergent Gait Patterns May Reduce Progression of Knee Osteoarthritis in a Clinically Relevant Time Frame

A high contact force between the medial femoral condyle and the tibial plateau is the primary cause of medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA).A high medial contact force (MCF) during gait has been shown to be correlated to both the knee adduction moment (KAM) and knee flexion/extension moment (KFM).In this study, RPM Sensor we used OpenSim Moc
