Myoferlin disturbs redox equilibrium to accelerate gastric cancer migration [PDF]
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 ObjectiveIn contrast to normal cells, in which reactive oxygen species (ROS) are maintained in redox equilibrium, cancer cells are characterized by ectopic ROS accumulation.

Targeting myoferlin in ER/Golgi vesicle trafficking reprograms pancreatic cancer-associated fibroblasts [PDF]
The EMBO JournalPancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) cells exploit vesicle trafficking proteins, such as myoferlin (encoded by MYOF), to fuel tumor aggressiveness, yet the presence and function of myoferlin-dependent vesicles in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) remain ...

Focal adhesion assembly and cell migration require myoferlin in PDAC cell lines [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a dire prognosis due to late diagnosis and ineffective treatments. Myoferlin, a transmembrane protein, is overexpressed in PDAC and correlates with poor patient survival, making it a potential therapeutic ...

Status quo and future developments in the diagnosis and treatment of hereditary angioedema. [PDF]
J Dtsch Dermatol GesSummary Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare hereditary disease characterized by edema, which can be life‐threatening in case of swelling in the larynx. The most common form of HAE is caused by a mutation of the SERPING1 gene and is characterized by a deficiency (type I) or loss of function (type II) of the C1 inhibitor (C1‐INH), leading to excessive ...

Otoferlin as a multirole Ca2+ signaling protein: from inner ear synapses to cancer pathways [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 Humans have six members of the ferlin protein family: dysferlin, myoferlin, otoferlin, fer1L4, fer1L5, and fer1L6. These proteins share common features such as multiple Ca2+-binding C2 domains, FerA domains, and membrane anchoring through their single C ...

Identification of Myoferlin, a Potential Serodiagnostic Antigen of Clonorchiasis, via Immunoproteomic Analysis of Sera From Different Infection Periods and Excretory-Secretory Products of Clonorchis sinensis [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Clonorchiasis, which is caused by Clonorchis sinensis, is an important foodborne disease worldwide. The excretory-secretory products (ESPs) of C. sinensis play important roles in host-parasite interactions by acting as causative agents.

Myoferlin depletion in breast cancer cells promotes mesenchymal to epithelial shape change and stalls invasion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Myoferlin (MYOF) is a mammalian ferlin protein with homology to ancestral Fer-1, a nematode protein that regulates spermatic membrane fusion, which underlies the amoeboid-like movements of its sperm.
