We have identified an increase in the adhesive phenotype of cells transformed withCALM-AF10, with a concomitant increase in expression of CXCR4 and ITGA4, both of which are key mediators of cell-stroma adhesion. In this project, we are investigating the mechanistic nature of these changes and whether they can be targeted to therapeutic effect. |
