Human colon cancer cells highly express myoferlin to maintain a fit mitochondrial network and escape p53-driven apoptosis

a TCGA-COAD data (http://cancergenome.nih.gov/) were analysed for disease-specific survival according to their myoferlin gene expression split into low (N？=？220) and high (N？=？220) according to the median. Kaplan–Meier curves were calculated for each group and a log-rank probability was calculated. b Myoferlin gene expression was analysed according to the prognostic stage. c Twenty-eight COAD sections were stained and scored for myoferlin (0—no staining, 1—faint staining, 2—medium staining, 3—strong staining). Scores were evaluated for tumour tissue and healthy adjacen
