Overview of Gene Research
High Mobility Group A1 (HMGA1), a nonhistone chromatin structural protein with no transcriptional activity, mainly regulates genes by modifying DNA structure. It is involved in multiple pathways such as Wnt/β -catenin, PI3K/Akt, Hippo, and MEK/ERK. HMGA1 is rare in adult cells but increases in highly proliferative cells like embryos. Genetic models, especially KO/CKO mouse models, are valuable for studying its functions [4].
In sepsis induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) mouse models, HMGA1 overexpression aggravated cardiac dysfunction, inflammation, and apoptosis, while its knockdown in H9c2 cardiomyocytes attenuated inflammation but aggravated apoptosis [1]. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) models, HMGA1 deficiency disrupted oncogenic properties and tumor progression [2]. In esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) models, inhibition of HMGA1 enhanced ferroptosis and restored sensitivity to cisplatin [3]. In colorectal cancer models, conditional knockout (Hmga1△IEC) and knock -in (Hmga1IEC-OE/+) mouse models showed that HMGA1 promoted CRC progression by upregulating fatty acid synthase (FASN) [5]. In ESCC mouse models, conditional knockout of HMGA1 reduced 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4NQO)-induced esophageal tumorigenesis [6].
In conclusion, HMGA1 plays a crucial role in various biological processes and disease conditions. Model-based research, especially using KO/CKO mouse models, has revealed its significant contributions to diseases like SIC, PDAC, ESCC, and colorectal cancer, providing insights into potential therapeutic strategies targeting HMGA1 in these diseases.
