Detailed Document
Overview of Gene Research
Cisd2, also known as CDGSH iron-sulfur domain 2, is an iron-sulfur protein with a [2Fe-2S] cluster. It is crucial for cell proliferation, iron homeostasis, and maintaining cellular homeostasis, including cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis, ER integrity, and mitochondrial function. It is associated with pathways like autophagy, p62-Keap1-NRF2, and is related to aging-related diseases, cancers, and lifespan regulation. Genetic models, such as knockout and transgenic mice, have been used to study its functions [1,2,3,4].
In Cisd2 knockout mice, Cisd2 deficiency shortens lifespan and leads to premature aging phenotypes, along with mitochondrial breakdown and dysfunction with autophagic cell death features [4]. In cancer-related studies, knockdown of Cisd2 in cells promotes ferroptosis through ferritinophagy-mediated ferritin turnover and inhibition of the p62-Keap1-NRF2 pathway [1].
In conclusion, Cisd2 is essential for multiple biological functions including lifespan regulation, cellular homeostasis, and iron metabolism. Studies using Cisd2 knockout mouse models have revealed its significance in aging-related diseases and cancer, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for these conditions.
