Characterization of pro-invasive mechanisms and N-terminal cleavage of ANXA1 in melanoma
Annexin A1 deregulation is often associated with cancer. Indeed we have shown that annexin A1 is overexpressed in melanoma and promotes metastases by formyl peptide receptor stimulation and MMP2 expression. He...
