## Abstract Platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB (PDGF‐BB) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of progressive glomerulonephritis (GN). Previous studies have reported that PDGF‐BB stimulates mesangial cells (MCs)‐induced collagen matrix remodeling through enhancement of α1β1 integrin‐dependent migr
Epithelial ovarian carcinoma, the leading cause of gynecologic cancer death, is characterized by widespread intra-abdominal metastases mediated primarily by surface shedding of tumor cells and peritoneal implantation. Whereas hematogenous metastasis is known to involve cellular adhesion, extracellul
