Other Information

## Summary The AKR1B1 gene encodes a protein called ALDR1B1, which is a member of the aldo-keto reductase family 1. This family of enzymes catalyze the reduction of various aldehydes and ketones to corresponding alcohols. ## Key characteristics * The AKR1B1 gene is located on chromosome 13q21.1. * It is a highly conserved gene, with a similar sequence found in mammals, birds, and fish. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including myeloid leukocytes, placental villous trophoblast, mesodermal cells, Hofbauer cells, ovarian surface epithelial cells, granulosa cells, alveolar macrophages, kidney loop of Henle thin ascending limb epithelial cells, Kupffer cells, and eurydendroid cells. * It is a key regulator of glucose metabolism, and its expression is regulated by a variety of factors, including glucose availability, insulin, and glucagon. * It is also involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism, and its expression is upregulated in conditions such as obesity and diabetes. ## Pathways and functions * The AKR1B1 protein is involved in a variety of metabolic pathways, including the metabolism of aldehydes and ketones, the metabolism of fatty acids and cholesterol, and the metabolism of steroids. * It is also involved in the regulation of inflammation, and its expression is upregulated in conditions such as sepsis and inflammation. * It is a key regulator of the immune response, and its expression is upregulated in conditions such as autoimmune diseases and cancer. ## Clinical significance * Mutations in the AKR1B1 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including diabetes, obesity, and cancer. * The protein is a potential target for therapeutic intervention in these diseases, and inhibitors of AKR1B1 have been shown to be effective in reducing inflammation and cell growth.
