Function
May promote proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by favoring the transition from the S to G2/M phase. In myeloid leukemic cell lines, inhibits cell growth and induces cell differentiation and apoptosis. May play a role in the inhibition of EIF4EBP1 phosphorylation/deactivation. Facilitates cell adhesion, most probably through interaction with cell surface lectins and cadherin.

- Activity summary
The OLFM4 protein also known as Olfactomedin 4 or GW112 has a molecular weight of around 57 kDa. It is a glycoprotein expressed mainly in human and some non-human primate tissues including the prostate and gastrointestinal tract. OLFM4 is a secreted protein found in various cells including those of the bone marrow and esophagus. It plays a role in innate immunity and is a part of the olfactomedin family which is involved in cell adhesion and migration processes.
- Biological function summary
OLFM4 functions in inhibiting bacterial growth by interfering with bacterial adhesion and survival. It is not part of a larger protein complex but interacts with cell surface proteins to exert its effects. OLFM4 acts in the regulation of cell differentiation and growth playing a significant part in maintaining the stem cell milieu in the intestine.
- Pathways
OLFM4 participates in cellular defense mechanisms primarily against microbial pathogens by involving in the activation of immune response pathways. It is associated with pathways such as the NF-kB signaling and Janus kinase (JAK) pathways. Through these pathways OLFM4 might interact with cytokines and other inflammatory mediators or modulators.
- Associated diseases and disorders
OLFM4 relates to cancer particularly gastric and colorectal cancer where its expression levels serve as potential biomarkers for disease progression. Additionally it associates with inflammatory bowel diseases impacting the mucosal immune response. In cancer OLFM4's interaction with proteins like MMP isoforms (matrix metalloproteinases) can influence tumor metastasis and invasiveness.
