Overview of Gene Research
Akip1, or A Kinase Interacting Protein 1, is a signaling adaptor involved in multiple cellular processes. It has been associated with various pathways such as NF-κB, AKT, Wnt/β-catenin, and is crucial for physiological cardiac remodelling and also plays a significant role in cancer-related processes [1,5,6]. In cancer, it is linked to tumorigenesis, metastasis, angiogenesis, and chemoradiotherapy resistance [1,2,3,4,5,7,8]. Genetic models are valuable in studying Akip1's function as they can help elucidate its role in normal and disease-related biological processes.
In glioblastoma, down-regulating Akip1 impaired cell proliferation, colony formation, and tumorigenicity. Akip1 stabilizes EGFR by cooperating with YY1-mediated HSP90AA1 transcriptional activation [1]. In endometrial carcinoma, elevated Akip1 expression was associated with tumor invasion, shorter survival, and decreased chemosensitivity, and silencing Akip1 enhanced cisplatin sensitivity in Ishikawa cells [2]. In glioblastoma again, Akip1 promoted cell viability, mobility, and chemoradiation resistance via regulating CXCL1 and CXCL8 mediated NF-κB and AKT pathways [3]. In tongue squamous cell carcinoma, overexpression of Akip1 increased cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and mRNA sequencing revealed its involvement in mTOR, PI3K-Akt, MAPK, Hippo, and Wnt signaling pathways [4]. In hepatocellular carcinoma, Akip1 promoted early recurrence by activating the Wnt/β-catenin/CBP signaling pathway [5].
In conclusion, Akip1 has diverse functions in both normal physiological processes like cardiac remodelling and in disease, especially cancer. Through gene-knockout or knockdown models in various cancer types, its role in promoting tumor progression, metastasis, and influencing chemosensitivity has been revealed. These findings highlight the importance of Akip1 as a potential therapeutic target in cancer treatment.
