Overview of Gene Research
Shisa8, also known as CKAMP39, is a member of the Cystine-knot AMPA receptor-modulating proteins (CKAMPs) family. It influences the trafficking, subcellular localization and function of AMPA receptors, which are assembled of four core subunits and several interacting proteins. These functions play a significant role in neural-related biological processes [1].
A multi-omics analysis of expeditioners in Antarctica identified Shisa Family Member 8 (SHISA8) as a potential key regulatory hub in modulating human sleep-wake activity. During the austral winter, expeditioners had sleep disruptions, and through correlation and causal mediation analysis, SHISA8 was revealed as a candidate gene related to these sleep-wake changes, suggesting it may be a novel target for medical intervention in sleep disorders under unique light environments [2].
In the study of lateral branch nephrogenesis, new, age-specific rhesus nephron progenitor cells (SHISA8) were discovered. The rhesus macaque was used as a model, and the findings in rhesus were verified in late-gestation human archival samples, indicating SHISA8 may be involved in nephrogenesis-related molecular processes [3].
In conclusion, Shisa8 is crucial for the regulation of AMPA receptor function, potentially plays a role in sleep-wake activity regulation under unique light conditions, and may be involved in nephrogenesis. Research on Shisa8 using models like the rhesus macaque and through multi-omics analysis provides insights into its functions in neural-related, sleep-related, and kidney-related biological processes, which could potentially contribute to understanding and treating related disorders.
