CLDN18
Claudin-18 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN18 gene.[4] It belongs to the group of claudins.
CLDN18 belongs to the large claudin family of proteins, which form tight junction strands in epithelial cells .[5] [supplied by OMIM][4]
Clinical significance
Isoform 2 (Claudin 18.2) is abundant in gastric tumors.[6]
Experimental antibody IMAB362 targets Claudin 18.2 to help treat gastric cancers.[6]
gollark: What if you give everyone brain implants which tie their concept of happiness to serving The State™?
gollark: With guns! That's how it always worked.

gollark: It removes incentive to do things.
gollark: Yes, it creates issues, so don't do it.
