    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in lobulogenesis, terminal differentiation and regulation of epithelial cell proliferation
  • potent inhibitor of anchorage-dependent and anchorage-independent cell growth, cell migration, and invasion
  • possesses tumor suppressor functions, and that these activities may be mediated through the AKT signaling pathway
  • may play crucial roles in inflammation and epithelial cell differentiation in lung
  • involved in the regulation of local immune responses in the lung
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, differentiation

    tumoral       loss of function
    in breast carcinoma and in preinvasive lesions (ductal and lobular carcinoma in situ)
    tumoral       loss of function
    by hypermethylation in prostate and a significant fraction of lung and pancreatic carcinomas
    tumoral     --low  
    silenced due to methylation in a substantial fraction of breast, prostate, lung, and pancreatic carcinomas
    tumoral     --low  
    silencing is associated with dense promoter region hypermethylation in esophageal cancer (methylation is an early event in dysplastic transformation)
