GlossaryVersican

large extracellular matrix protein involved in cell adhesion and migration

Versican is a large extracellular matrix protein that plays a crucial role in cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration. It is particularly important in the development and maintenance of tissues, including the skin and hair follicles, and has been implicated in various biological processes such as wound healing and cancer progression.
