Disease relevance of TMEM158

  • Finally, RIS1 seemed to be functionally involved in tumor development, as low-frequency MSI tumors (MSI-L) with RIS1 mutated usually were associated with a worse prognosis: 83% of them developed metastasis, and no patient with MSI-L tumor and RIS1 mutated (35.3% of MSI-L) survived >25 months after surgery (log rank P < 0.001) [1].
  • The polypeptide sequence derived from the partial RIS-1 cDNA was found to be identical to the calcium binding domain found in 'psoriasin', a gene whose expression appears to be increased in the skin of psoriasis patients [2].

Biological context of TMEM158

 

Anatomical context of TMEM158

  • We have developed a monoclonal antibody named mAb 6A22 against the 40-kDa BINP-binding protein, p40BBP. mAb 6A22 inhibits binding between BINP and rat brain synaptosomes and abolishes the protective effect of BINP [10].
 

Associations of TMEM158 with chemical compounds

 

Other interactions of TMEM158

  • Moreover, mutations in RIS1 in MSI-H tumors correlated with the epigenetic silencing of MLH1 (P = 0.04) [1].
  • We have also previously identified a skin-specific gene (RIS-1/psoriasin) which is rapidly induced in human skin treated with RA [12].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TMEM158

  • HPLC analysis of the RA content of 0.1% RA-treated skin in vivo revealed significant levels at 6 h (18.8-120.6 ng RA/g wet weight tissue; approximately 240 nM), immediately preceding the time point at which the increased RIS-1 mRNA level was first seen [2].
  • A retinoic acid-inducible skin-specific gene (RIS-1/psoriasin): molecular cloning and analysis of gene expression in human skin in vivo and cultured skin cells in vitro [2].
