Researchers investigating the role of the protein CD44 in obesity and metabolic health found that CD44-deficient mice stayed lean even on a high-fat diet, while the control mice developed obesity.

Glioblastoma stem cells with fluorescent labeling for prion protein (red), CD44 protein (green), and cell nucleus (blue) ...

This led to some major insights on the role of the versatile protein CD44, which he is now using to develop a potential new drug against cancer, arthritis and other conditions. My lab finds ways ...

We found that splice isoform switching of the CD44 gene must take place in order for cells to undergo EMT. We also discovered a novel splicing-mediated pathway that drives cancer metastasis. We ...
