"These differential effects of OPN on cardiac myocyte apoptosis under different pathologies may include different neurohormonal response under diverse pathological conditions, cell-type/s involved in the expression of OPN, receptor/s (integrins or CD44) stimulated by OPN and/or differential post-translational modifications of OPN, including phosphorylation and glycosylation."

"For example, osteopontin induces CD44 dependent chemotaxis and down-modulates anti-inflammatory IL-10 secretion through interactions with CD44, and is hypothesized as an activator of the CD44 variant survival signal in lymphocytes by the extracellular matrix of the gut mucosa Intriguingly, CD44v7, a principal CD44 isoform sufficient for osteopontin binding, is the isoform present in our Gottron 's papules."
