Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) can undergo self-renewal and differentiation. EpCAM is a 40-kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein composed of a large extracellular domain, one transmembrane region, and a small intracellular domain of 26 amino acids. Recent insights revealed that it is involved in promoting cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasiveness. It is used as a diagnostic and prognostic marker. EpCAM has also recently been identified as a marker for CSCs.
