Overview of Gene Research
TMEM158, also known as RIS1, is a gene whose function has been increasingly studied in the context of various cancers. It has been implicated in promoting tumor progression through various signaling pathways such as STAT3, PI3K/AKT, and TGF-β [1-4, 6-8, 10]. Genetic models, especially loss-of-function models, can significantly contribute to understanding its role in tumorigenesis.
In gliomas, silencing TMEM158 inhibited cell proliferation, and in vivo results confirmed the inhibitory effect of its down-regulation on glioma growth, suggesting its oncogenic role through STAT3 activation [1]. In lung adenocarcinoma, knockdown of TMEM158 produced opposite effects to its overexpression, which promoted cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, migration, and invasion, via the PI3K/AKT pathway [2]. In triple-negative breast cancer, overexpressed TMEM158 participated in EMT by activating the TGF-β pathway, promoting tumor migration, invasion, and metastasis [3]. Similar oncogenic roles were seen in pancreatic, colorectal, ovarian, and anaplastic thyroid carcinomas [4, 6-8, 10]. In contrast, in prostate cancer, TMEM158 was down-regulated, negatively regulated by AR signaling, and associated with better survival outcomes [4].
In conclusion, TMEM158 generally acts as an oncogene in multiple cancers, promoting processes like cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and drug resistance through various signaling pathways. However, in prostate cancer, it seems to have an opposite role. The study of TMEM158 using gene knockout or conditional knockout models has been crucial in uncovering its role in different cancer types, providing potential therapeutic targets for cancer treatment.
