Ribozyme mediated down-regulation of thrombospondin receptor CD36 inhibits the growth of the human osteosarcoma cell line.
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) is known to possess tumor suppressor functions. In contradiction, TSP1 enhances the stromal vascularization and growth of certain cancers. A cell adhesion receptor, CD36, has been shown to interact with a ligand TSP1. We studied how CD36 affects the growth of the osteosarcoma...
