Overview of Gene Research
Dclk1, or Doublecortin-like kinase 1, is a microtubule-associated protein kinase. It is involved in neurogenesis and has been identified as a stem cell marker in various tissues. Dclk1 regulates tumorigenesis, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation, and is associated with multiple signaling pathways like Notch, Wnt/β-catenin, and RAS [3,5,6]. It also plays a role in maintaining epithelial homeostasis and the immune response [4].
In atherosclerosis, macrophage-specific Dclk1 deletion in ApoE-/-mice attenuates the disease by reducing inflammation. Mechanistically, Dclk1 binds to IKKβ, phosphorylates it at S177/181, and activates the NF-κB signaling pathway in macrophages, promoting inflammatory gene expression [1]. In obesity-induced cardiomyopathy, macrophage-specific Dclk1 knockout, but not cardiomyocyte-specific knockout, prevents HFD-induced heart dysfunction, hypertrophy, and fibrosis. Dclk1 deficiency suppresses RIP2/TAK1 activation and inflammatory responses in macrophages [2].
In conclusion, Dclk1 is crucial in multiple biological processes and disease conditions. Model-based research, especially using Dclk1 KO/CKO mouse models, has revealed its pro-inflammatory roles in atherosclerosis and obesity-induced cardiomyopathy, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for these inflammatory cardiovascular diseases [1,2].
