Overview of Gene Research
Srgn, also known as serglycin, is a proteoglycan gene expressed in immune cells. It is involved in multiple biological processes and associated with various disease-related pathways. For example, it may be involved in cell-cell interactions, inflammation, and tumor-related processes [1-10]. Gene knockout (KO) models have been valuable in studying its function.
In ischemic stroke models, Srgn KO mice showed reduced microglia-mediated neuroinflammation and alleviated ischemic brain injury, indicating that Srgn amplification exacerbates such injury by promoting microglial pro-inflammatory activation via the NF-κB signal pathway and increasing glycolysis in microglia [1]. In TTF-1-negative lung adenocarcinomas, Srgn overexpression was associated with a poor outcome, and in osteoarthritis, Srgn promoted macrophage recruitment through CCL3 regulation [2,3]. In endothelial cells, low shear stress enhanced Srgn expression via the PKA/CREB-dependent signaling pathway, and it may be involved in atherosclerotic plaque formation [4]. In breast cancer, Srgn overexpression was linked to chemoresistance, and in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, STAT3 regulated Srgn to promote tumor growth and metastasis [5,6]. In colorectal cancer, Srgn promoted metastasis as a downstream target of HIF-1α, and in triple-negative breast cancer, it formed a regulatory loop with TGFβ2 to confer invasion and metastasis [7,8]. In hepatocellular carcinoma, Srgn overexpression predicted poor prognosis, and in skin cutaneous melanoma, it was associated with patient survival and immune infiltrates [9,10].
In conclusion, Srgn is involved in a wide range of biological processes and disease conditions. The use of Srgn KO mouse models has been crucial in revealing its role in ischemic stroke, multiple types of cancers, osteoarthritis, and atherosclerosis. Understanding Srgn's functions provides insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
