of ANHAK and TMEFF1 in ovarian cancer indicated a higher degree of tumor malignancy and a worse prognosis | |
Variant & Polymorphism
|

Candidate gene
| autoantigen in systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) |
Marker
| has the potential to be a new marker for detecting mesothelioma |

System | Type | Disorder | Pubmed |
immunology | infectious | | |
potential target for therapeutic intervention | cancer | reproductive | ovary | |
the interaction between AHNAK and TMEFF1 may become a potential anti-tumor target for ovarian cancer treatment |

| Ahnak-deficient mice were protected from high-fat diet-induced obesity | |
Ahnak deficiency plays a positive role for hippocampal neurogenesis in adult mice because proliferating cells were increased in Ahnak(-/-) mice and advanced to mature neurons |
