Essential roles of integrin-mediated signaling for the enhancement of malignant properties of melanomas based on the expression of GD3.

abstract：:A critical aspect of sexual development in Dictyostelium is the selection of "self" as a targeted food source by the phagocytic zygotic giant cell (ZGC). It has previously been demonstrated that phagocytic giant cells preferentially take up amoebae of the same species suggesting that the process is mediated by a speci...
