## Abstract CD44 is a cellβsurface glycoprotein postulated to play a role in a variety of biological processes, including lymphocyte homing and tumorβcell metastasis. Several isoforms of CD44 have been identified in human cells, and the genesis of some of these isoforms has been attributed to alter
CD44 is the major hyaluronan cell surface receptor and functions as an adhesion molecule in many different cell types, including human breast epithelial cells. The coexpression of certain CD44 variants (CD44v), such as CD44v (v10/ex14), with CD44s (standard form) appears to be closely associated wit
