Overview of Gene Research
Slc22a17, also known as the neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin/lipocalin-2 (LCN2)/24p3 receptor, is an atypical member of the SLC22 family. It is involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME) of LCN2, playing roles in iron-handling, extracellular matrix remodeling, and tight-junction regulation. It is associated with multiple biological pathways including those related to cell death, metabolism, and cancer-related processes [2,3,5]. Genetic models, such as gene knockout mouse models, are valuable for studying its functions.
In a mouse model of transient focal cerebral ischemia, endothelial expression of Slc22a17 increased along with blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage. Knockdown of Slc22a17 using short interfering RNA in human brain endothelial cultures prevented TNF-α-induced ferroptosis, down-regulation of tight-junction proteins, and disruption of transcellular permeability. In the same model, Slc22a17 knockdown also ameliorated BBB leakage, suggesting its role in controlling BBB function after cerebral ischemia [1]. In another study, in macrophages, knockdown of Slc22a17 reduced MMP9 release upon treatment with recombinant LCN2, indicating its role in the LCN2-mediated regulation of MMP9 in the context of cardiac injury post-myocardial infarction [4].
In conclusion, Slc22a17 is crucial in processes like BBB integrity maintenance after cerebral ischemia and in the LCN2-MMP9 network in the context of cardiac injury. Gene knockout mouse models have been instrumental in revealing these functions, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets for stroke-related BBB injury and cardiac injury post-myocardial infarction.
