Other morbid association(s)
TypeGene ModificationChromosome rearrangementProtein expressionProtein Function
tumoral       loss of function
in urothelial cancer, frequently inactivated in non small-cell lung carcinoma
tumoral       loss of function
results in changes to the tumor environment that confer cancer cells an increased growth and invasive capacity
tumoral     --over  
in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Susceptibility
  • to obesity
  • to idiopathic acquired pure red cell aplasia (PRCA)
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP
  • single nucleotide polymorphism (rs431809) in intron 4, significantly correlated with both body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip-ratio (WHR)
  • LRP1B mutations may be associated with acquired PRCA
  • Candidate gene
    Marker
  • biomarker for thyroid cancer exhibiting differences in the correlation coefficients between benign and malignant samples that indicate its discriminatory power
  • Nuclear LRP1B was significantly associated with poor patient prognosis in breast cancer cells and nuclear expression of LRP1B intracellular domain increased NEAT1 expression
  • Therapy target

    Genetic and epigenetic crosstalk of LRP1B gene may be implicated in the prevention and therapeutic approach to childhood obesity

    restoring the function of LRP1B would be a promising strategy for the treatment of colon cancer
