Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** IGFBP4 is a small, secreted protein that belongs to the IGFBP family, which consists of six members (IGFBP1-6). IGFBP4 is distinct from other IGFBPs in its ability to bind both IGF-I and IGF-II with high affinity. This unique property allows IGFBP4 to modulate the activity of these IGFs, which are involved in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. **Pathways and Functions:** IGFBP4 plays a crucial role in regulating IGF signaling, which is involved in various cellular processes, including: 1. **Cell Growth and Proliferation:** IGFBP4 modulates IGF signaling, influencing cell growth and proliferation. In some tissues, IGFBP4 promotes cell proliferation, while in others, it inhibits it. 2. **Metabolism:** IGFBP4 regulates glucose metabolism by modulating IGF signaling, which is involved in glucose uptake and storage. 3. **Regulation of Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor Signaling:** IGFBP4 positively regulates IGF receptor signaling, which is involved in cell growth, differentiation, and survival. 4. **Negative Regulation of Canonical Wnt Signaling:** IGFBP4 negatively regulates canonical Wnt signaling, which is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. **Signaling Pathways:** IGFBP4 interacts with various signaling pathways, including: 1. **Mapk Cascade:** IGFBP4 positively regulates the Mapk cascade, which is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. 2. **Insulin-Like Growth Factor Receptor Signaling Pathway:** IGFBP4 positively regulates IGF receptor signaling, which is involved in cell growth, differentiation, and survival. 3. **Negative Regulation of Canonical Wnt Signaling Pathway:** IGFBP4 negatively regulates canonical Wnt signaling, which is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** IGFBP4 is expressed in various cell types, including: 1. **Endocardial Cells:** IGFBP4 is expressed in endocardial cells, which are involved in heart development and function. 2. **Alveolar Capillary Type 1 Endothelial Cells:** IGFBP4 is expressed in alveolar capillary type 1 endothelial cells, which are involved in lung development and function. 3. **Tracheal Goblet Cells:** IGFBP4 is expressed in tracheal goblet cells, which are involved in airway development and function. 4. **Interstitial Cells of Ovary:** IGFBP4 is expressed in interstitial cells of the ovary, which are involved in ovarian function and development. 5. **Fibroblasts of Mammary Gland:** IGFBP4 is expressed in fibroblasts of the mammary gland, which are involved in breast development and function. **Clinical Significance:** IGFBP4 has significant clinical implications in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer:** IGFBP4 is overexpressed in various cancers, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. Its overexpression is associated with poor prognosis and aggressive tumor behavior. 2. **Cardiovascular Disease:** IGFBP4 is involved in cardiovascular development and function. Its dysregulation is associated with cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis and heart failure. 3. **Metabolic Disorders:** IGFBP4 regulates glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Its dysregulation is associated with metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes and obesity. In conclusion, IGFBP4 is a multifaceted protein that plays a crucial role in regulating IGF signaling and various cellular processes. Its dysregulation is associated with various diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms of IGFBP4 and its role in human disease.
