Abstract

CD36 is a suspected facilitator of long chain fatty acid transport and as a thrombospondin (TSP) receptor, thereby being implicated in cell proliferation, angiogenesis and tumor metastasis. The human amelanotic melanoma cell line, C32, is known to express CD36 and has been used as a model for studying TSP binding. The purpose of this study was to investigate the regulation of CD36 expression in the C32 cell line.
