Description

Desak Made Wihandani and seven co-authors link a cell surface protein to bigger, later-stage breast tumors in a 2024 study from Bali. The protein, CD44, helps cells grip and move, and it marks stem-like tumor cells. Its level in local patients had not been charted.

The team measured the protein in 46 tumor samples over one year. Patients ranged from 38 to 86 years old. Protein levels split clearly by menstrual status, tumor size, and stage. With a set cut line, high levels tracked with larger tumors in a strong way. The authors say the cheap test may help grade risk at diagnosis.
