Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** INHBC is a 164-amino acid protein that belongs to the inhibin family of glycoprotein hormones. It is characterized by its unique structure, which consists of a disulfide-linked homodimeric subunit. INHBC is primarily expressed in the placenta during pregnancy, but it is also found in various tissues and cells, including plasma cells, goblet cells, and neural cells. **Pathways and Functions:** INHBC plays a crucial role in several signaling pathways, including: 1. **Cytokine activity:** INHBC interacts with cytokines, such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), to regulate immune responses and inflammation. 2. **Glycoprotein hormone biosynthesis:** INHBC is involved in the synthesis of glycoprotein hormones, including inhibin, activin, and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). 3. **Signal transduction:** INHBC modulates signal transduction pathways, including the TGF-β pathway, to regulate cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. 4. **Metabolism of proteins:** INHBC is involved in the regulation of protein metabolism, including the degradation of proteins and the synthesis of new proteins. **Significance in the Immune System:** INHBC has been shown to play a critical role in the immune system, particularly in the regulation of immune responses and inflammation. Its expression is increased in response to immune stimuli, and it interacts with various immune cells, including plasma cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of INHBC has been implicated in several diseases, including: 1. **Autoimmune disorders:** Alterations in INHBC expression have been linked to autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. 2. **Cancer:** INHBC has been shown to be overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. 3. **Neurological disorders:** INHBC has been implicated in neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 4. **Reproductive disorders:** INHBC has been linked to reproductive disorders, including infertility and miscarriage. In conclusion, INHBC is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in the immune system and beyond. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the mechanisms of INHBC and its potential therapeutic applications.
