Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Tetraspanin structure:** TSPAN6 is a type II transmembrane protein, consisting of four tandem repeats of a 46-amino acid sequence, with two extracellular loops and two intracellular loops. 2. **Expression pattern:** TSPAN6 is highly expressed in various tissues and cell types, including ciliated columnar cells of the tracheobronchial tree, epithelial cells of the nephron, squamous epithelial cells, and kidney collecting duct principal cells. 3. **Protein binding capabilities:** TSPAN6 interacts with various proteins, including other tetraspanins, integrins, and immune receptors, modulating their activity and function. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Negative regulation of NF-κB signaling:** TSPAN6 negatively regulates the canonical NF-κB signaling pathway, which is crucial for immune response and inflammation. 2. **Negative regulation of cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptor signaling:** TSPAN6 also negatively regulates the signaling pathways of cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and NOD-like receptors (NLRs), which are essential for innate immune response. 3. **Positive regulation of NF-κB signaling:** In contrast, TSPAN6 can positively regulate the canonical NF-κB signaling pathway under certain conditions, suggesting a context-dependent role for TSPAN6 in immune response. 4. **Exosome-mediated regulation:** TSPAN6 is involved in the formation and regulation of exosomes, which are small extracellular vesicles that carry proteins and lipids from cells to other cells, influencing immune response and cellular signaling. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Inflammation and immune response:** TSPAN6's role in regulating NF-κB signaling and PRR signaling pathways makes it a potential target for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and Crohn's disease. 2. **Cancer and metastasis:** TSPAN6's involvement in exosome-mediated regulation of cell signaling and adhesion suggests its potential role in cancer progression and metastasis. 3. **Respiratory diseases:** TSPAN6's expression in ciliated columnar cells of the tracheobronchial tree and its involvement in regulating immune response make it a potential target for the treatment of respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma. In conclusion, TSPAN6 is a multifaceted protein that regulates various cellular processes, including immune response, cell signaling, and adhesion. Its clinical significance extends to the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, cancer, and respiratory diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the functions and mechanisms of TSPAN6.
