Overview of Gene Research
Srebf1, also known as sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1 (SREBP-1), is a key lipogenic transcription factor. It plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism, participating in pathways related to lipid synthesis, uptake, storage, and liberation, thus maintaining lipid homeostasis. It is also involved in various biological processes such as midbrain dopaminergic neurogenesis [6].
In cancer research, Srebf1 has been found to be essential in multiple ways. In tumor cells, it concurrently regulates lipid synthesis and lipophagy to maintain lipid homeostasis for rapid tumor growth, suggesting it as a potential target for cancer treatment [1]. In pancreatic cancer, BHLHE40 upregulates Srebf1 to inhibit ferroptosis [2]. In renal cell carcinoma, TRIM21 regulates Srebf1 protein stability to attenuate lipogenesis and malignancy, and the two are correlated as a biomarker for prognosis [3]. In squamous cell carcinomas, Srebf1 is a central mediator linking TP63 with fatty-acid metabolism and is essential for SCC viability and migration [4]. In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, PRP19 enhances fatty acid synthesis through Srebf1 to promote cancer progression [5]. Additionally, a gain-of-function variant in Srebf1 causes generalized skin hyperpigmentation with congenital cataracts, revealing its involvement in melanogenesis and lens development [7].
In conclusion, Srebf1 is a vital regulator in lipid metabolism and is implicated in multiple disease areas, especially cancer. Studies using various models, although not specifically KO/CKO mouse models in the provided references, have revealed its significant roles in maintaining lipid homeostasis and promoting tumor growth, providing potential therapeutic targets for cancer treatment and new insights into understanding melanogenesis and lens-related disorders.
