Lamin B1 is one of the essential members of the nuclear lamina protein family. Its main function is to maintain the integrity of nuclear skeleton, as well as to participate in the cell proliferation and aging by affecting the chromosome distribution. gene expression, and DNA damage repair. The abnormal expression of lamin B1 is related to certain diseases, including neurological diseases [e.g. neural tube defects (NDTs), adult-onset autosomal dominant leukodystrophy (ADLD)] and tumors (e.g. pancreatic cancer). It is also a potential tumor marker as well as drug target. Further research on lamin B1 will help people understand the molecular mechanism of the emergence and development of neural system diseases and tumors, and define a new future in drug target.
核纤层蛋白B1 (Lamin B1) 是核纤层蛋白家族重要成员之一，其主要功能在于维持细胞核骨架完整性，并通过影响染色体分布、基因表达及DNA 损伤修复等参与细胞的增殖和衰老。其表达异常与多种疾病有关，如神经系统疾病 (神经管畸形，ADLD) 及肿瘤 (胰腺癌) 等，是潜在的药物靶点和肿瘤标志物。对Lamin B1 功能的深入研究，将有助于对相关神经系统疾病和肿瘤发生发展的分子机制的了解并为治疗靶点研究提供新方向。.
