Overview of Gene Research
Zc3h12c, also known as Regnase-3, is an important member of the CCCH-zinc finger protein family. It functions as a post-transcriptional regulator, mainly involved in host immune and inflammatory responses. It has been associated with pathways such as NF-κB activation regulation, and plays a crucial role in maintaining immune and inflammatory homeostasis. Genetic models, like Zc3h12c-deficient mice, have been valuable in studying its functions [1,2,3,5].
Zc3h12c-deficient mice develop hypertrophic lymph nodes, indicating its role in preventing lymphadenopathy of skin-draining lymph nodes, likely through regulating Tnf mRNA stability in dendritic cells [1]. In macrophages, loss of Gfi1 upregulates Zc3h12c, which in turn inhibits NF-κB activation, forming a negative feedback loop [2]. In endothelial cells, knockdown of Zc3h12c increases TNFα-induced expression of chemokines and adhesive molecules, suggesting it inhibits vascular inflammation by suppressing the NF-κB pathway [3]. Also, in macrophages, overexpression of Zc3h12c mitigates the release of TNF-α and IL-6 triggered by lipopolysaccharide, while its depletion increases cytokine production [5]. Additionally, Regnase-1/3 (Zc3h12a/c) control lymphoid-myeloid lineage bias in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells via regulating Nfkbiz mRNA [6].
In summary, Zc3h12c is a key regulator in multiple biological processes related to the immune response and inflammation. Studies using Zc3h12c-deficient mouse models have revealed its roles in preventing lymphadenopathy, regulating NF-κB activation in macrophages and endothelial cells, modulating cytokine release in macrophages, and controlling lineage biases in hematopoietic cells. These findings contribute to understanding its significance in immune-related diseases such as psoriasis, vascular inflammation, and potentially others [1,2,3,4,5,6].
