The Extracellular Matrix Glycoprotein Elastin Microfibril Interface Located Protein 2: A Dual Role in the Tumor Microenvironment

The Extracellular Matrix Glycoprotein Elastin Microfibril Interface Located Protein 2: A Dual Role in the Tumor Microenvironment

We have recently reported that elastin microfibril interface located protein 2 (EMILIN2), an extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoprotein, triggers cell death through a direct binding to death receptors. EMILIN2 thus influences cell viability through a mechanism that is unique for an ECM molecule. In th...
