Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** FABP7 is a small, cytoplasmic protein that belongs to the FABP family, which consists of six members. FABP7 is characterized by its ability to bind to long-chain fatty acids, particularly palmitate and oleate, with high affinity. This binding property is essential for the transport of fatty acids across cell membranes and their subsequent metabolism. FABP7 is also known to regulate the activity of other proteins involved in fatty acid metabolism, such as carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1). **Pathways and Functions:** FABP7 is involved in various biological pathways, including: 1. **Fatty Acid Binding and Transport:** FABP7 binds to fatty acids, facilitating their transport across cell membranes and their subsequent uptake by cells. 2. **Fatty Acid Metabolism:** FABP7 regulates the activity of enzymes involved in fatty acid metabolism, such as CPT1, which is essential for the transport of fatty acids into mitochondria for beta-oxidation. 3. **Negative Regulation of Cell Population Proliferation:** FABP7 has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of cells, including neural progenitor cells and immune cells such as T cells. 4. **Nervous System Development:** FABP7 is expressed in neural progenitor cells and plays a role in the development of the nervous system. 5. **Triglyceride Catabolism and Metabolism:** FABP7 is involved in the regulation of triglyceride metabolism, which is essential for energy homeostasis. **Clinical Significance:** The dysregulation of FABP7 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Neurodegenerative Disorders:** Altered expression of FABP7 has been observed in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 2. **Immune-Mediated Disorders:** FABP7 has been implicated in immune-mediated disorders such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. 3. **Metabolic Disorders:** Dysregulation of FABP7 has been linked to metabolic disorders such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. 4. **Cancer:** FABP7 has been shown to regulate the proliferation of cancer cells, making it a potential target for cancer therapy. In conclusion, FABP7 is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in fatty acid metabolism and regulation of cell population proliferation. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying FABP7 function and its clinical significance.
