Extra Details:
AEG1 (Astrocyte elevated gene 1); also called MTDH (Metadherin); or L LYsine-RIch CEACAM1 co-isolated (LYRIC); is 582 aa single transmembrane domain (TMD) protein. It is widely expressed and highly conserved between species. It is recruited during the matuRation of the tight junction complex and co-localizes with tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occludin in polarized epithelial cells. AEG-1 is involved in several crucial aspects of tumor progression; including transformation; evasion of apoptosis; invasion; metastasis; and chemoresistance. Overexpression of AEG-1 is frequently observed in melanoma; glioma; neuroblastoma; and carcinomas of breast; prostate; liver; and esophagus and is correlated with poor clinical outcomes. AEG-1 functions as a downstream mediator of the transforming activity of oncogenic Ha-Ras and c-Myc.
Furthermore; AEG-1 overexpression activates the PI3K/Akt; nuclear factor κB (NFκB); and Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathways to stimulate prolifeRation; invasion; cell survival; and chemoresistance. The lung-homing domain of AEG-1 also mediates the adhesion of tumor cells to the vasculature of distant organs and promotes metastasis. These findings sμggest that therapeutic targeting of AEG-1 may simultaneously suppress tumor growth; block metastasis; and enhance the efficacy of chemotherapeutic treatments.
