Function

Mediates effects on cell migration and adhesion through its different partners. During development plays a role in blood and lymphatic vessels separation by binding CLEC1B, triggering CLEC1B activation in platelets and leading to platelet activation and/or aggregation (PubMed:14522983, PubMed:15231832, PubMed:17222411, PubMed:17616532, PubMed:18215137). Interaction with CD9, on the contrary, attenuates platelet aggregation induced by PDPN (PubMed:18541721). Through MSN or EZR interaction promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) leading to ERZ phosphorylation and triggering RHOA activation leading to cell migration increase and invasiveness (PubMed:17046996, PubMed:21376833). Interaction with CD44 promotes directional cell migration in epithelial and tumor cells (PubMed:20962267). In lymph nodes (LNs), controls fibroblastic reticular cells (FRCs) adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) and contraction of the actomyosin by maintaining ERM proteins (EZR; MSN and RDX) and MYL9 activation through association with unknown transmembrane proteins. Engagement of CLEC1B by PDPN promotes FRCs relaxation by blocking lateral membrane interactions leading to reduction of ERM proteins (EZR; MSN and RDX) and MYL9 activation (By similarity). Through binding with LGALS8 may participate in connection of the lymphatic endothelium to the surrounding extracellular matrix (PubMed:19268462). In keratinocytes, induces changes in cell morphology showing an elongated shape, numerous membrane protrusions, major reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, increased motility and decreased cell adhesion (PubMed:15515019). Controls invadopodia stability and maturation leading to efficient degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in tumor cells through modulation of RHOC activity in order to activate ROCK1/ROCK2 and LIMK1/LIMK2 and inactivation of CFL1 (PubMed:25486435). Required for normal lung cell proliferation and alveolus formation at birth (By similarity). Does not function as a water channel or as a regulator of aquaporin-type water channels (PubMed:9651190). Does not have any effect on folic acid or amino acid transport (By similarity).

Activity summary

Podoplanin also known as gp36 and PDPN is a small transmembrane protein weighing approximately 36 kDa. It mainly expresses in lymphatic endothelial cells podocytes and various other tissues like the lung and kidney. It functions as a marker in mesothelial cells and is noticeable in histochemical studies such as mesothelioma using podoplanin staining in immunohistochemistry (IHC). Podoplanin emerges as an important tool in identifying lymphatic vessels and has significant roles in the development of certain tissues.

Biological function summary

The protein participates in maintaining the integrity of cell structures and lymphangiogenesis. This protein does not form part of a larger complex but actively interacts with different molecules. In lymphoid tissues podoplanin contributes to the proper formation of lymphatic channels and assists in platelet aggregation. These actions are pivotal in wound healing and protecting the epithelial cell layers in multiple organs.

Pathways

Podoplanin impacts the platelet activation pathway and the Lymphatic Vessel Development pathway. Its interaction with CLEC-2 (C-type lectin-like receptor 2) triggers downstream signaling leading to changes in platelet morphology and actin cytoskeleton reorganization. Podoplanin’s activation of these pathways links it to key processes that include cell migration and tissue homeostasis TGF-beta interaction also represents a significant relationship within these pathways.

Associated diseases and disorders

Podoplanin has correlations with conditions like cancer specifically mesothelioma and squamous cell carcinoma. Dysregulation of podoplanin and its pathways may contribute to tumor progression and metastasis. In mesothelioma podoplanin interacts with other proteins like E-cadherin influencing cancer cell migration and adhesion. Its role in disease states highlights the importance of podoplanin IHC as a diagnostic tool aiding in the better understanding and identification of disease pathology.

    Overlay histogram showing HCT116 cells stained with ab10288 (red line). The cells were fixed with methanol (5 min) and incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab10288, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (Mouse IgG1, Kappa Monoclonal [B11/6] - Isotype Control ab91353, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a slightly decreased signal in HCT116 cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) used under the same conditions.

    Please note that Abcam does not have data for use of this antibody on non-fixed cells. We welcome any customer feedback.
