General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism FAP-alpha is significantly increased in breast cancer patients with poor outcome and survival Homo sapiens
additional information overexpression of FAP-alpha results in a reduction of phosphorylated focal adhesion kinase level in both MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells cultured in normal media and serum-free media, while the growth of MDA-MB-231 cells and the adhesion and invasion ability of both MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells are not dramatically influenced by FAP-alpha expression Homo sapiens
physiological function in vitro, FAP-alpha promotes proliferation and inhibits migration of breast cancer cells, potentially by regulating the FAK pathway Homo sapiens
