21. This meta-analysis shows that over-expression of claudin-4 is associated with progress of gastric cancer and poor prognosis of gastric cancer patients. PMID: 26109060
22. Data suggest that changes in DNA methylation in trophoblasts regulate (1) cell mobility/placentation, (2) expression of claudin-4 (CLDN4) and 4-fucosyltransferase (FUT4), and (3) matrix metalloproteinase (MMP2 and MMP9) activity. PMID: 25697377
