Overview of Gene Research
Sirpa, Signal-regulatory protein alpha, is a transmembrane protein. Its ligand is CD47, and their interaction is a key "don't eat me" signal pathway. When CD47 on target cells binds to Sirpa on macrophages and dendritic cells, it suppresses phagocytosis, playing a crucial role in immune regulation, especially in the context of cancer immune escape [2,4,5,6,7]. Genetic models, such as gene knockout (KO) mouse models, are valuable for studying its functions.
In melanoma, tumor-intrinsic Sirpa enhances antitumor immunity and sensitivity to checkpoint inhibition immunotherapy. Mice bearing Sirpa-deficient melanoma tumors show no response to anti-PD-L1 treatment, indicating that Sirpa is essential for immunotherapy efficacy in melanoma [1]. In osteosarcoma, knockdown of Sirpa impairs cell migration by decreasing SP1 stability and arginine uptake, suggesting that Sirpa promotes metastasis in osteosarcoma [3].
In conclusion, Sirpa plays a complex role in the tumor ecosystem. Through KO mouse models, its significance in melanoma immunotherapy and osteosarcoma metastasis has been revealed. Understanding Sirpa's functions can provide potential therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.
