BACKGROUND: CD9 Antibody: CD9 is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Like other tetraspanins, CD9 is a cell surface glycoproteins play a role in many cellular processes including differentiation, adhesion, and signal transduction (1) . CD9 expression plays a critical role in the suppression of cancer cell motility and metastasis. In one study, the knockdown of CD9 expression suppressed the metastatic capacity of human breast cancer cells (2) , while other results have shown the opposite effect, suggesting that different proteins associated with CD9 account for its abilities to promote or suppress metastasis (3) .
