Function
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4, also known as melanoma-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (MCSP) or neuron-glial antigen 2 (NG2), is a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan that in humans is encoded by the CSPG4 gene. CSPG4 plays a role in stabilizing cell-substratum interactions during early events of melanoma cell spreading on endothelial basement membranes. It represents an integral membrane chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan expressed by human malignant melanoma cells. CSPG4/NG2 is also a hallmark protein of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs)[8] and OPC dysfunction has been implicated as a candidate pathophysiological mechanism of familial schizophrenia.
