Annexins, calcium-binding proteins, are not disease-causing genes but influence disease. Changes in annexin levels or location can contribute to cardiovascular disease and cancer pathology.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Cell Biology
  • Biochemistry

Background:

  • Annexins are a family of calcium- and membrane-binding proteins found in most eukaryotic cells.
  • Despite structural similarities, annexins perform diverse cellular functions, including vesicle trafficking, cell division, apoptosis, calcium signaling, and growth regulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the roles of annexins in human diseases.
  • To examine the molecular mechanisms underlying abnormal annexin behavior in disease pathophysiology.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of annexin function and disease association.
  • Analysis of molecular basis for altered annexin expression and localization.

Main Results:

  • No individual annexin gene is directly causative of human disease.

  • Altered annexin expression or localization is linked to pathological consequences in various conditions.
  • Annexins are indirectly associated with major disease classes like cardiovascular disease and cancer.

    • Conclusions:

    • Annexins play a significant indirect role in disease development and progression.
    • Understanding annexin pathophysiology is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies for complex diseases.
