Fascin Antibody
Fascin/FSCN1 binds beta-catenin and colocalizes with it at the leading edges and borders of epithelial and endothelial cells. The role of FSCN1 in regulating cytoskeletal structures for the maintenance of cell adhesion, coordinating motility and invasion through interactions with signalling pathways is an active area of research especially from the cancer biology perspective. It localizes to actin-rich protrusions at the cell surface called filopodia. FSCN1 localizes to invadopodia, membrane protrusions formed at the adherent cell surface that facilitate extracellular matrix (ECM) invasion, this provide a potential molecular mechanism for how fascin increases the invasiveness of cancer cells since fascin expression is upregulated in a spectrum of cancers.
