Overview of Gene Research
Fam167a, also known as C8orf13, is a gene that has been linked to multiple biological processes and diseases. It activates the noncanonical NF-κB pathway, and genetic polymorphisms in the Fam167A-BLK region are associated with autoimmune diseases, suggesting its role in immune-related mechanisms [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10].
In a study on chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), in vitro and in vivo mouse experiments were carried out. It was found that Fam167A activates the noncanonical NF-κB pathway by binding to desmoglein-1 (DSG1), blocking the ubiquitination of NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) and upregulating it. Neutralization of Fam167A in a mouse tumor model reduced noncanonical NF-κB activity and restored cell sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), revealing its crucial role in BCR-ABL-independent TKI resistance in CML [1].
In conclusion, Fam167a plays a significant role in the noncanonical NF-κB signaling pathway activation. The in vivo mouse model studies have specifically shown its importance in CML, highlighting its potential as a target and biomarker for BCR-ABL-independent TKI resistance in this disease [1].
