Overview of Gene Research
Padi4, also known as peptidyl arginine deiminase type 4 or PAD4, is a Ca2+-dependent posttranslational modification enzyme. It catalyzes the conversion of arginine residues to non-coded citrulline residues. Padi4-mediated citrullination is associated with transcriptional regulation, and its dysregulation is involved in multiple diseases. It may be related to pathways such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), apoptosis, and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation, which are crucial in various biological processes and disease developments [8].
In cancer research, a rare African-specific germline variant of TP53 (Y107H) revealed Padi4 as a key tumor-suppressive p53 target gene. Y107H mice, which have impaired Padi4 transactivation, develop spontaneous cancers and metastases, indicating Padi4's role in tumor suppression [1]. In lung cancer, knockdown of Padi4 attenuates cell invasion and migration by affecting the EMT-associated Snail1/Smad3/4 transcriptional complex [3]. In gastric cancer, Padi4 promotes EMT and metastasis via up-regulation of interleukin 8 [4]. In osteosarcoma, Padi4 promotes cell invasion and migration by promoting EMT, while its inhibitor suppresses these effects [6]. In a mouse lung carcinogenetic model, berberine, which can inhibit Padi4 expression, reduces the number of lung tumor nodules [5].
In conclusion, Padi4 plays significant roles in cancer development and metastasis, mainly through its influence on EMT-related processes. Studies using mouse models, like those with the Y107H variant of TP53, have been crucial in uncovering Padi4's tumor-suppressive function. Additionally, its association with rheumatoid arthritis, as shown by polymorphism and haplotype studies in Egyptian patients [2] and meta-analysis in Asian and Caucasian populations [7], further emphasizes its importance in disease-related research.
