Other Information

**Key Characteristics** PAWR is a protein-coding gene that belongs to the protein kinase C (PRKC) family. It is characterized by its ability to regulate apoptosis, cell proliferation, and gene expression through its interaction with the Wnt1 pathway. PAWR is specifically expressed in certain cell types, including myoepithelial cells of the mammary gland, renal interstitial pericytes, and basal cells of the prostate epithelium. Its expression is also detected in other tissues, such as the kidney, cornea, and conjunctiva. **Pathways and Functions** PAWR plays a crucial role in regulating apoptosis and cell proliferation through its interaction with the Wnt1 pathway. The Wnt1 pathway is a key signaling pathway involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. PAWR acts as a negative regulator of this pathway, inhibiting the activation of downstream targets that promote cell proliferation and survival. Instead, PAWR promotes apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, thereby regulating cell growth and proliferation. PAWR's regulatory functions extend beyond the Wnt1 pathway. It also interacts with other signaling pathways, including the PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK pathways, to modulate gene expression and cell behavior. PAWR's role in regulating gene expression is mediated through its interaction with transcription factors, such as p53 and NF-κB, which are key regulators of cellular responses to stress and damage. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of PAWR has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer. Overexpression of PAWR has been observed in various types of cancer, including breast, prostate, and kidney cancer. This overexpression is associated with increased cell proliferation, apoptosis resistance, and poor prognosis. PAWR's role in regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis also makes it a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment. Inhibiting PAWR's activity could lead to the induction of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest, thereby reducing tumor growth and progression. Additionally, PAWR's involvement in the Wnt1 pathway makes it a potential target for the treatment of diseases associated with Wnt1 dysregulation, such as certain types of cancer and bone disorders. In conclusion, PAWR is a critical regulator of apoptosis and cell proliferation that plays a significant role in maintaining tissue homeostasis. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several diseases, including cancer, and makes it a potential therapeutic target for cancer treatment and other diseases associated with Wnt1 dysregulation.
