Overview of Gene Research
CLIC3, Chloride intracellular channel 3, is a member of the glutathione-S-transferase (GSTs) superfamily. It is involved in regulating fundamental cellular processes such as chloride ion concentration, cell membrane potential, trans-epithelial transport, cell volume, and apoptotic processes [6]. It has also been implicated in various signaling pathways like the P53 signaling pathway [3].
In cancer research, CLIC3 has been found to play significant roles. In bladder cancer, it interacts with NAT10, inhibits N4-acetylcytidine modification of p21 mRNA, reducing p21 expression and promoting cancer cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo [1]. High CLIC3 mRNA expression in bladder cancer is associated with adverse clinicopathological factors and poor prognosis, and may be used as a biomarker [3]. In breast cancer, CLIC3 controls the recycling of late endosomal MT1-MMP, dictating invasion and metastasis in ER-negative breast cancer [5]. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, CLIC3, along with Rab25, promotes integrin recycling from late endosomes/lysosomes, and its expression predicts lymph node metastasis and poor prognosis [8]. In gastric cancer, CLIC3 functions as a Cl-channel in the plasma membrane, and decreased expression is associated with unfavorable prognosis [4]. In salivary gland mucoepidermoid carcinoma, hypomethylation of the CLIC3 promoter and its overexpression are significant events [9]. Also, secreted CLIC3 from cancer and stromal cells promotes angiogenesis and cancer cell invasiveness through its glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase activity [2].
In summary, CLIC3 is crucial in multiple cellular processes and has a profound impact on cancer progression, as demonstrated by various in vivo and in vitro studies. Its role in cancer makes it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker, highlighting the importance of further research on CLIC3 in understanding cancer biology and developing novel treatments. In addition, its association with other diseases like fetal growth restriction, pre-eclampsia [6], and schizophrenia [7] also indicates its wide-ranging biological significance.
