REGULACIÓN EPIGENÉTICA DEL POTENCIAL SUPRESOR TUMORAL TXNIP
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Las células cancerosas adquieren importantes características que les permiten adaptarse a diferentes microambientes y proliferar indefinidamente. Con esa finalidad, se orquestan cambios importantes en una variedad de genes, un grupo de oncogenes es incrementado mientras que otro grupo que suprime el crecimiento tumoral es disminuido. La proteína que interactúa con tioredoxina (o TXNIP) fue inicialmente descrita como un gen que incrementa sus niveles en respuesta a la vitamina D3. Posteriormente, varias funciones biológicas han sido asignadas experimentalmente a TXNIP que resaltan su papel clave como gen supresor de tumores. En este artículo, se describen las actividades de TXNIP relacionadas al cáncer así como la evidencia científica que apoya la regulación epigenética que dirige su disminución en cáncer.
