| 24991826    | 2014 | Cell line : - Source : - Sample Type : CRC tumor and normal tissue No. of Sample : - Stage : - | - | Up-regulation | - | ATG4B is a potential biomarker and drug target for cancer therapy. ATG4B independently plays a role as a positive regulator on tumor proliferation and a negative regulator on autophagy in colorectal cancer cells. ATG4B expression was significantly increased in tumor cells of colorectal cancer patients compared with adjacent normal cells. |

| Description | Autophagy is the process by which endogenous proteins and damaged organelles are destroyed intracellularly. Autophagy is postulated to be essential for cell homeostasis and cell remodeling during differentiation, metamorphosis, non-apoptotic cell death, and aging. Reduced levels of autophagy have been described in some malignant tumors, and a role for autophagy in controlling the unregulated cell growth linked to cancer has been proposed. This gene encodes a member of the autophagin protein family. The encoded protein is also designated as a member of the C-54 family of cysteine proteases. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.   |
