WASF1 and cancer: To further understand the mechanisms associated with the cancer cell migration and invasiveness of LCRMP1, Pan et al (40) also revealed that the overexpression of LCRMP1 in non-invasive human cell lines enhances filopodia formation and cancer cell migration and invasion via the stabilization of actin through binding to the Wishott-Aldrich syndrome protein family 1 (WAVE-1) protein.
