Background: Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4,NG2 / chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 is expressed on glial cell populations, but not on normal hepatopoietic cells. It is an integral membrane chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan expressed by human malignant melanoma cells, where it plays role in stabilizing cell-substratum interactions during early events of melanoma cell spreading on endothelial basement membranes, and supports signaling pathways important for tumor invasion and growth. NG2 also serves as an AML blast tumor marker associated with poor prognosis.,Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4, MSK16, CSPG4, MCSP
