ENPP3 expressed by HER2-positive breast cancer cells is associated with good prognosis by restraining epithelial-to-mesenchymal phenotype

Background Ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 3 (ENPP3/CD203c) is largely studied as a marker of mast cells and basophils. By depleting extracellular ATP, it prevents excessive activation of mast cells and basophils, hence reducing inflammation and allergic reactions. Recent findings have also shown that...
