Caveolin-1

This review highlights the structural and functional roles of caveolins and lipid rafts in cellular signaling and disease pathogenesis, particularly cancer.

Cite This Study

Quest et al. (2004) conducted a review in Cancer and cellular signaling diseases. Caveolin-1 was evaluated. Caveolin-1 is an essential structural component of cell surface caveolae that plays a key role in cellular signaling and the development of diseases such as cancer.
