Detailed Document
Overview of Gene Research
P4ha2, a subunit of prolyl-4-hydroxylases, contains a substrate binding and catalyzation domain and is a key enzyme in collagen synthesis [1]. It is involved in multiple biological processes and disease-related pathways, with its functions being explored through genetic models.
In chronic cholestatic liver diseases, P4HA2-/-mice showed a reduced level of ductular reaction and fibrosis compared to controls in DDC-induced chronic cholestasis, indicating that P4HA2 promotes hepatic ductular reaction and biliary fibrosis by regulating the SAV1-mediated Hippo signaling pathway [1]. In B-cell lymphoma, the absence of P4HA2 significantly impedes B lymphoma progression due to the suppression of Hh signaling in stromal fibroblasts [2].
In conclusion, P4ha2 plays a crucial role in collagen synthesis and is involved in various disease processes. The use of gene-knockout mouse models, such as P4HA2-/-mice, has been instrumental in revealing its role in chronic cholestatic liver diseases and B-cell lymphoma, providing potential therapeutic targets for these diseases.
