Overview of Gene Research
ABCC4, also known as multi-drug resistance protein-4 (MRP4), is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter. It is involved in the regulation of endogenous and exogenous substrates, playing a crucial role in processes like cAMP-dependent second messenger signaling and extracellular transport [1]. It has been implicated in various physiological and pathological pathways, with its dysregulation associated with numerous disorders [3]. Genetic models, such as gene knockout mouse models, are valuable for studying its function.

In megakaryopoiesis, Abcc4-/-mice showed impaired proplatelet formation and polyploidization, indicating that ABCC4 is required for optimal platelet formation [2]. In the context of cardiovascular disease, inhibition of MRP4 (ABCC4) in adult rat ventricular myocytes increased intracellular cAMP levels, enhancing cardiomyocyte contractility, but prolonged inhibition promoted cardiac hypertrophy [4]. In prostate cancer, depletion of ABCC4 in cancer cells halted the release of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), which improved the efficacy of PD-1 blockade by reducing CD8 + T cell dysfunction [5]. In glioblastoma, ABCC4 loss-of-function activated cGMP-PKG signalling, promoting malignancy, and aspirin hydrogels, by upregulating ABCC4, augmented the efficacy of standard-of-care therapies [6]. In pancreatic cancer, modulation of ABCC4 levels in cell lines dysregulated genes in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) signature, and in Abcc4-null mice, cytarabine-induced hematological toxicity was enhanced, suggesting ABCC4 protects against cytarabine-mediated insults in leukemic and host myeloid cells [7,8].

In conclusion, ABCC4 is essential for multiple biological processes, including platelet formation, cAMP homeostasis, and cellular signalling regulation. Through gene knockout mouse models, its role in various disease areas such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and response to chemotherapy has been revealed. These findings highlight the importance of ABCC4 as a potential therapeutic target in multiple disease conditions.
