Background: Calreticulin
Given its role in multiple biological processes, it makes sense that calreticulin is implicated in both healthy and disease states. Studies have found that calreticulin mutations were present in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MFN) and essential thrombocythaemia (ET) (4). Calreticulin expression is typically upregulated in most cancer lines, however it is downregulated in some tissues including cervical carcinomas, prostate cancer, and human colon adenocarcinoma (3). High expression of calreticulin on cancer cells is related to tumor cell phagocytosis and is often correlated with, and counteracted by, elevated CD47 expression to prevent cancer cell phagocytosis (3). Calreticulin mutations can serve as a major diagnostic biomarker for MFN and ET and additionally the calreticulin gene may be a potential target for cancer therapeutics (3,4).
