Overview of Gene Research
EEF1D, also known as eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1 delta, is part of the EEF1 protein complex. It can produce four protein isoforms, with three short isoforms acting as translation elongation factors, involved in anti-aging, cell cycle regulation, and the development of malignant tumors. The long-form isoform is crucial for nervous system development. EEF1D is involved in various biological processes, and its study in genetic models like KO mouse models can help uncover its functions [1,4,5].
EEF1D knockdown in primary bovine mammary epithelial cells led to abnormal cytoplasmic lipid droplet formation and a significant decrease in milk triglyceride levels, indicating its role in milk lipid synthesis via insulin (PI3K-Akt), AMPK, and PPAR pathways. In EEF1D Nuclease technology knockout mice, incompletely developed mammary glands and decreased milk triglyceride concentration were observed, along with gene expression alterations in the three pathways [2]. In glioma, knockdown of EEF1D reduced cell proliferation and impaired epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotypes, suggesting its role in promoting glioma cell proliferation, migration, and invasion through PI3K/Akt and EMT pathways [3]. In ovarian cancer, interfering with EEF1D gene expression enhanced the sensitivity of cancer cells to cisplatin, potentially by inactivating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway [6].
In summary, EEF1D plays essential roles in multiple biological processes. Its functions in milk lipid synthesis, as well as in the development and treatment-related aspects of various cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders, have been revealed through model-based research, especially KO mouse models. These findings contribute to understanding disease mechanisms and developing potential therapeutic strategies for related diseases [1,2,3,5,6].
