Insights into the binding selectivity of harzianoic acids A and B to tetraspanin CD81 by Gérard Vergoten, Christian Bailly

“…A comparison of the interaction with the homologous tetraspanin CD9, which also presents a dynamic open/closed equilibrium, underlined the marked selectivity of Hz-A/B for CD81 over CD9. The cyclobutane-containing monoterpene grandisol, an insect pheromone, has been identified as a fragment that could be modulated to improve its modest interaction with CD81-LEL. …”

Significance of Glioma Stem-Like Cells in the Tumor Periphery That Express High Levels of CD44 in Tumor Invasion, Early Progression, and Poor Prognosis in Glioblastoma by Masahiro Nishikawa, Akihiro Inoue, Takanori Ohnishi, Shohei Kohno, Shiro Ohue, Shirabe Matsumoto, Satoshi Suehiro, Daisuke Yamashita, Saya Ozaki, Hideaki Watanabe, Hajime Yano, Hisaaki Takahashi, Riko Kitazawa, Junya Tanaka, Takeharu Kunieda

“…Cultured GSCs obtained from the tumor periphery were highly invasive and have enhanced migration phenotype, both of which were markedly inhibited by CD44 knockdown. Higher expression of CD44 in the tumor periphery than in the core was correlated with a highly invasive feature on MRI and was associated with early tumor progression and worse survival, whereas lower expression of CD44 in the tumor periphery corresponded to low invasion and was associated with longer survival. …”
