Syncytin 1, CD9, and CD47 regulating cell fusion to form PGCCs associated with cAMP/PKA and JNK signaling pathway

Abstract

These data indicate that the cell fusion-related proteins syncytin 1, CD9, and CD47 may be involved in PGCC formation, and that cAMP/PKA and JNK signaling is likely to promote PGCC formation via the regulation of cell fusion processes.
