carcinoma cell 14 adenocarcinomas, 13 squamous cell carcinomas, 5 large cell carcinomas, and 5 small cell carcinomas. All of the tumor types express heparanase, which is predominantly localized within the cytoplasm and nucleus. Squamous cell carcinomas, large cell carcinomas, and small cell carcinomas have a similar subcellular distribution of heparanase to adenocarcinomas but the distribution is less widespread Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function heparanase is the only known mammalian glycosidase capable of cleaving heparan sulfate chains. The expression of this enzyme is associated with tumor development because of its ability to degrade extracellular matrix and promote cell invasion Homo sapiens
