Overview of Gene Research
CRKL, also known as CT10 regulator of kinase-like, is a proto-oncogene encoding a SH2 and SH3 domain-containing adaptor protein. It is involved in multiple signaling pathways. For instance, it can regulate cell growth, differentiation, and migration by participating in pathways like PI3K/Akt, JNK/JUN, and the Hippo pathway [2,3,4]. CRKL's dysregulation has been associated with various diseases, especially cancers [2]. Genetic models, such as gene knockout (KO) and conditional knockout (CKO) mouse models, are valuable tools for studying its functions.
In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), CRKL overexpression nullifies anti-PD-1 treatment efficacy. CRKL promotes the infiltration of tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), which block CD8+ T cell infiltration and function. Mechanistically, CRKL inhibits APC-mediated proteasomal degradation of β-catenin, promoting VEGFα and CXCL1 expression. Targeting CRKL using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing restores the efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy in orthotopic mouse models and patient-derived organotypic tumor spheroid models [1]. In other cancer types, gene knockdown and knockout of Crk and CrkL in tumor cell lines suppress tumor cell functions like proliferation, migration, and invasion [2]. In lung adenocarcinoma, depletion of CRKL blunts Hh-GLI2 pathway-mediated cell proliferation and invasion, and CRKL knockout cells are more sensitive to EGFR-TKI and chemotherapeutics [5]. In cervical cancer, knocking down CRKL led to reduced cell proliferation and regulated alternative splicing of cancer-related genes [6].
In conclusion, CRKL plays a crucial role in multiple biological processes, especially in cancer development and progression. Studies using KO/CKO mouse models and other loss-of-function experiments have significantly contributed to understanding its role in diseases like HCC, colorectal cancer, lung adenocarcinoma, and cervical cancer. These findings suggest that CRKL could be a potential therapeutic target for treating related diseases.
