Description
MCAM plays a role in cell adhesion, and in cohesion of the endothelial monolayer at intercellular junctions in vascular tissue. Its expression may allow melanoma cells to interact with cellular elements of the vascular system, thereby enhancing hematogeneous tumor spread. It could be an adhesion molecule active in neural crest cells during embryonic development. It acts as surface receptor that triggers tyrosine phosphorylation of FYN and PTK2, and a transient increase in the intracellular calcium concentration.

Descripción
The melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM), also known as CD146 or MUC18, is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). MCAM was initially identified as an adhesion molecule highly expressed in melanoma cells, and since then, it has been shown to play a role in various cellular processes beyond melanoma, including angiogenesis, inflammation, and immune cell trafficking. MCAM is expressed in a variety of cell types, such as endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and immune cells, contributing to its diverse biological functions. Its key role in cellular adhesion makes it critical in both normal physiological processes like vascular integrity and in pathological conditions such as cancer metastasis, cardiovascular disease, and inflammation.
