Biological context of SERPINB5

 

Anatomical context of SERPINB5

  • Subcellular fractionation shows that a fraction of maspin (in both TM40D-Mp and mutant maspinDeltaN cells) translocates to the mitochondria [1].
  • To address this issue, we generated stable maspin-expressing transfectants using prostate carcinoma cells DU145 as the parental cell line [11].
  • In tumor tissues, maspin expression was associated with lymph node involvement (P = 0.035) and tumor stage (P = 0.063) in all tested cases, except squamous carcinoma [2].
  • We confirmed the maspin/GST interaction using purified proteins, human epithelial cell lines, and human prostate tissues [3].
  • This study indicates that maspin protein possibly functions as a clinically relevant inhibitor of tumor progression, preventing local invasiveness and further systemic progression of papillary thyroid carcinomas [12].
 

Associations of SERPINB5 with chemical compounds

 

Physical interactions of SERPINB5

  • We have also demonstrated the binding of p63 protein to a previously identified p53-binding site on the maspin promoter by gel shift and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays [2].
  • Mammary serine protease inhibitor (Maspin) binds directly to interferon regulatory factor 6: identification of a novel serpin partnership [10].
  • Further biochemical and biophysical analyses revealed that maspin specifically bound to pro-uPA with a deduced K(d) of 270 nmol/L and inhibited the plasmin-mediated pro-uPA cleavage [15].

Other interactions of SERPINB5

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SERPINB5

  • Maspin-expressing mammary tumors are more susceptible to apoptosis in both implanted mammary tumors in vivo, a three-dimensional spheroid culture system, as well as in monolayer cell culture under lowered growth factors [1].
  • To this end, we used a full-length maspin cDNA bait to screen against both a primary prostate tumor cDNA prey library and a HeLa cDNA prey library by the yeast two-hybrid method [3].
  • We developed a real-time quantitative RT-PCR assay to quantify the full range of maspin mRNA copy numbers in a series of 10 ER alpha-positive and 10 ER alpha-negative breast tumours [7].
  • The first aim of our study was to determine the prognostic value of maspin protein expression for the recurrence-free and overall survival of PTC patients undergoing radical thyroidectomy and postoperative irradiation [12].
  • The lack of maspin expression in breast cancer seems to be associated with a short disease-free survival and supports maspin's function as an indicator for tumor aggressiveness and metastatic potential [8].
