Mitochondrial‑associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane interference in ovarian cancer (Review).

The mitochondria‑associated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane (MAM), serving as a vital link between the mitochondria and ER, holds a pivotal role in maintaining the physiological function of these two organelles. Its specific functions encompass the participation in the biosynthesis and functional regulation of the mitochondria, calcium ion transport, lipid metabolism, oxidative stress and autophagy among numerous other facets. Scientific exploration has revealed that MAMs hold potential as effective therapeutic targets influencing the mitochondria and ER within the context of cancer therapy.
