The calcium pump PMCA4b promotes epithelial cell polarization and lumen formation
12 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Loss of epithelial cell polarity and tissue disorganization are hallmarks of carcinogenesis, in which Ca 2+ signaling plays a significant role. Here we demonstrate that the plasma membrane Ca 2+ pump PMCA4 (ATP2B4) is downregulated in luminal breast cancer, and this is associated with shorter relapse-free survival in patients with luminal A and B1 subtype tumors. Using the MCF-7 breast cancer cell model...
