Overview of Gene Research
Klhdc8a, the Kelch domain containing 8A gene, has emerged as a significant player in cancer-related processes. It is involved in pathways such as hedgehog signaling and has a role in ciliogenesis, which are crucial for cell growth, development, and differentiation [1]. In addition, its association with macrophage infiltration and oxidative stress indicates its importance in the tumor microenvironment [2].
In glioma, targeting Klhdc8a decreased glioblastoma stem cell (GSC) proliferation, self-renewal, induced apoptosis, and impaired in vivo tumor growth [1]. Knockdown of Klhdc8a in glioma cell lines led to reduced cell proliferation and colony formation, associated with down-regulation of key proteins in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway [4]. In papillary thyroid cancer, Klhdc8a knockdown hindered cell viability, invasion, and migration, inhibited M2 macrophage polarization while promoting M1 polarization, and suppressed tumor growth in xenograft models [3]. In normal ovarian epithelial cells, Klhdc8a knockdown promoted the polarization of pro-tumoral macrophages via the C5a/C5aR/p65 NFκB signaling pathway [5].
In conclusion, Klhdc8a plays a vital role in cancer development, influencing cell proliferation, macrophage polarization, and tumor growth. Loss-of-function experiments in cell lines and animal models, though not specifically KO/CKO mouse models in the provided references, have been crucial in revealing its functions in glioma, papillary thyroid cancer, and ovarian cancer-related processes, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target in these diseases.
