CD44std (Phagocytic glycoprotein I, Extracellular matrix receptor-III, GP90 lymphocyte homing/adhesion receptor, Hermes antigen, Hyaluronate receptor, Heparan sulfate proteoglycan, Epican, CD44 antigen)

CD44 is a polymorphic glycoprotein which participates in a wide variety of cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions including lymphocyte homing, establishment of B and T cell immune responses, tumor metastasis formation and inflammation. Determination of sCD44std will provide more detailed insight into different pathological modifications during cancer and other diseases.
