Altered syndecan-1 expression has been detected in several different tumor types. Syndecan 1 can be a marker for plasma cells.

== Structure ==

The syndecan-1 core protein consists of an extracellular domain which can be substituted with heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan chains, a highly conserved transmembrane domain, and a highly conserved cytoplasmic domain, which contains two constant regions that are separated by a variable region.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Bernfield M, Götte M, Park PW, Reizes O, Fitzgerald ML, Lincecum J, Zako M | title = Functions of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans | journal = Annual Review of Biochemistry | volume = 68 | pages = 729–777 | date = 1999 | pmid = 10872465 | doi = 10.1146/annurev.biochem.68.1.729 }}</ref> The extracellular domain can be cleaved (shed) from the cell surface at a juxtamembrane site,<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Wang Z, Götte M, Bernfield M, Reizes O | title = Constitutive and accelerated shedding of murine syndecan-1 is mediated by cleavage of its core protein at a specific juxtamembrane site | journal = Biochemistry | volume = 44 | issue = 37 | pages = 12355–12361 | date = September 2005 | pmid = 16156648 | pmc = 2546870 | doi = 10.1021/bi050620i }}</ref> converting the membrane-bound proteoglycan into a paracrine effector molecule with roles in wound repair <ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Elenius V, Götte M, Reizes O, Elenius K, Bernfield M | title = Inhibition by the soluble syndecan-1 ectodomains delays wound repair in mice overexpressing syndecan-1 | journal = The Journal of Biological Chemistry | volume = 279 | issue = 40 | pages = 41928–41935 | date = October 2004 | pmid = 15220342 | doi = 10.1074/jbc.M404506200 | doi-access = free }}</ref> and invasive growth of cancer cells.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Piperigkou Z, Mohr B, Karamanos N, Götte M | title = Shed proteoglycans in tumor stroma | journal = Cell and Tissue Research | volume = 365 | issue = 3 | pages = 643–655 | date = September 2016 | pmid = 27365088 | doi = 10.1007/s00441-016-2452-4 | s2cid = 13944019 | url = https://zenodo.org/record/3375516 }}</ref>

An exception is the prosecretory mitogen lacritin that binds syndecan-1 only after heparanase modification.<ref name="pmid16982797">{{cite journal | vauthors = Ma P, Beck SL, Raab RW, McKown RL, Coffman GL, Utani A, Chirico WJ, Rapraeger AC, Laurie GW | display-authors = 6 | title = Heparanase deglycanation of syndecan-1 is required for binding of the epithelial-restricted prosecretory mitogen lacritin | journal = The Journal of Cell Biology | volume = 174 | issue = 7 | pages = 1097–1106 | date = September 2006 | pmid = 16982797 | pmc = 1666580 | doi = 10.1083/jcb.200511134 }}</ref><ref name="pmid23504321 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE]">{{cite journal | vauthors = Zhang Y, Wang N, Raab RW, McKown RL, Irwin JA, Kwon I, van Kuppevelt TH, Laurie GW | display-authors = 6 | title = Targeting of heparanase-modified syndecan-1 by prosecretory mitogen lacritin requires conserved core GAGAL plus heparan and chondroitin sulfate as a novel hybrid binding site that enhances selectivity | journal = The Journal of Biological Chemistry | volume = 288 | issue = 17 | pages = 12090–12101 | date = April 2013 | pmid = 23504321 | pmc = 3636894 | doi = 10.1074/jbc.M112.422717 | doi-access = free }}</ref> Binding utilizes an enzyme-regulated 'off-on' switch in which active epithelial heparanase (HPSE) cleaves off heparan sulfate to expose a binding site in the N-terminal region of syndecan-1's core protein.<ref name="pmid16982797" /> Three SDC1 elements are required.
