    basic FUNCTION
  • estrogen-responsive gene inhibiting cell growth
  • may be playing a role in endocrine-immune interactions in breast cancer
  • inducing growth arrest and apoptosis on activated immune cells, mediated by a putative death receptor
  • modulating surface expression of tumor-associated, normally cryptic O-linked glycan structures and contributing indirectly to the antigenicity of tumor cells
  • acting as a ligand for a putative receptor on immune cells such as peripheral lymphocytes and natural killer cells
  • may play important roles in epithelial ovarian cancer
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis
