physiological function | fibroblast activation protein-alpha promotes ovarian cancer cell proliferation and invasion via extracellular and intracellular signaling mechanisms, role of the non-enzymatic activities of the enzyme, overview. The enzyme, together with integrin alpha3beta1 and the uPAR signaling complex, mediates cancer cell migration in the HO-8910PM cell line via the small GTPase Rac1. FAP?-mediated upregulation of p-ERK occurs in a time-dependent manner | Homo sapiens |
