ABSTRACT
Cluster of differentiation 147(CD147)/extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) is a widely distributed transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is highly enriched on the surface of malignant tumour cells. A major function of CD147 is to stimulate matrix metalloproteinase production in stromal fibroblasts and endothelial cells. CD147 promotes growth,invasion,metastasis,and glycolysis of malignant cells,induces angiogenesis,multidrug resistance,and anoikis resistance,and inhibits starvation-induced autophagy et al. This review focuses on the structural and biological characteristics of CD147 as well as recent advances in its multiple functions in malignant tumours and underlining mechanisms.
