  • nucleocytoplasmic distribution in breast and prostate cells
  • intracellular nucleocytoplasmic protein that cannot be secreted
  • basic FUNCTION
  • inhibitor of prostate tumor progression, preventing the local invasiveness
  • inhibiting tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis, reducing osteolysis
  • playing an important role in the premalignancy of the prostate gland
  • may contribute to bladder cancer development and DNA methylation and histone deacetylation may be important for regulating maspin gene activation in bladder cancer cells
  • having a potential role for tumour metastasis in gastric cancer
  • modulating cell death and invasion in cervical cancer cells
  • might function with the cornea to regulate cell adhesion to extracellular matrix
  • blocking the growth, invasion and metastatic properties of mammary tumors
  • tumor inhibitor properties may be linked to its nuclear localization
  • suppressing the invasive ability of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells
  • plays a role in reducing the prostate tumor cell's ability to seed to bone
  • stimulates apoptosis, inhibits motility, invasion and cancer metastasis
  • may be restricted to an intracellular, possibly nuclear, role in which it influences cell-matrix interactions indirectly and is probably released only as a consequence of cell damage or necrosis
  • potentially exerts its role in the nucleus at the level of gene or chromatin regulation and thus indirectly affects the cell-matrix interaction or differentiation state
  • potent angiogenesis inhibitor and one of the key molecules that play a key role in endothelial cell (EC) cell adhesion and migration
  • affects cell adhesion and cytoskeleton reorganization through an integrin signal transduction pathway
  • decreases cell migration, invasion, proliferation, and angiogenesis, while increasing apoptosis and adhesion (

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with PRSS21
  • interacts with the transcription factor IRF6
  • regulates the activation of ILK and PTK2 and causes the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton
  • inhibits cell migration by inhibiting RAC1 and CDC42
  • physically associates with both PLAUR and ITGB1, thus producing a complex that regulates both cell motility and adhesion

    Variant & Polymorphism
    Candidate gene
  • increased expression of SERPINB5 is associated with metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma
  • detection of SERPINB5 in blood may indicate aggressive disease in breast cancer
  • Marker
  • may be a useful marker to identify the potential for progression in oral squamous cell carcinoma
  • cytoplasmic mSERPINB5 may play an important role in lung carcinomas by regulating apoptosis and thus is a favorable prognostic marker for adenocarcinoma patients whereas nuclear localization may be linked to promotion of angiogenesis
  • Therapy target
