Podoplanin Associates with CD44 to Promote Directional Cell Migration
Podoplanin, a cancer-associated glycoprotein, interacts with CD44. Both glycoproteins are coordinately upregulated during tumor progression. Podoplanin–CD44 interaction in the cell membrane occurs mainly in migrating cells, and it seems to be required for podoplanin-mediated cell migration and directionality
