| Background: | CD147/EMMPRIN (Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer); also known as Basigin (BSG); is a transmembrane glycoprotein with different forms resulted from different modes of glycosylation and N-terminal sequence variants. It is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily with homology to both the immunoglobulin V domain and MHC class II antigen beta-chain. This protein play important roles in variety of events including spermatogenesis; embryo implantation; neural network formation. CD147 induces the production and release of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) in the surrounding mesenchymal cells and tumor cells; and thereby promotes invasion; metastasis; growth and survival of malignant cells. Furthermore; CD147 also serves as a receptor for extracellular cyclophilinthe and its association with integrins might be important in signal transduction. Recently; CD147 displays increased expression in many cancers; and it has been previously demonstrated to participate in cancer metastasis and progression. Thus; CD147 and its antibody are used as an effective treatment for malignant cancers. |
