Overview of Gene Research
Odc1, or ornithine decarboxylase 1, is a rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis, metabolizing l-ornithine to polyamines. Polyamines are involved in multiple biological processes such as cell differentiation, proliferation, and migration [4]. Odc1 has been linked to pathways like WNT/MYC and AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin, and is of great biological importance in various physiological and pathological conditions [2,5]. Genetic models, especially KO/CKO mouse models, can be valuable for studying its functions.
In osteoclast differentiation, loss of Nrf2 or iron supplementation upregulates Odc1, which decreases ornithine levels and promotes osteoclast differentiation, uncovering a novel Nrf2-iron-ornithine metabolic axis [1]. In neuroblastoma, knockdown of Odc1 significantly attenuated the promotion effect of CDC27 on cell proliferation, metastasis, and sphere-formation ability, and reversed CDC27-induced pro-ferroptotic effect, indicating that the CDC27/ODC1 axis promotes tumorigenesis and acts as a positive regulator of ferroptosis in NB [3]. In macrophages, ODC1 overexpression inhibited the phosphorylation of multiple transcription factors, attenuated the inflammatory response, and inhibited reactive oxygen species-induced and caspase-dependent apoptosis, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory diseases [4]. In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a decrease in Odc1 expression inhibits HCC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and induces cell cycle arrest both in vitro and in vivo, and Odc1 promotes HCC cell progression via the AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway and modulation of the acidotic microenvironment [5].
In conclusion, Odc1 plays crucial roles in multiple biological processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, and inflammatory response. Through model-based research, especially KO/CKO mouse models, its roles in diseases such as osteoporosis, neuroblastoma, inflammatory diseases, and hepatocellular carcinoma have been revealed, providing insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
