Supplementary information

MASPIN also known as SERPINB5 is a non-inhibitory serine protease inhibitor with a mass of approximately 42 kDa. It functions mechanically to regulate cell adhesion migration apoptosis and angiogenesis. MASPIN localizes mainly in the cytoplasm and nucleus and expresses predominantly in epithelial cells including those in the mammary gland prostate and keratinocytes in the skin. It acts as a tumor suppressor and researchers often use immunohistochemistry (IHC) to study its expression patterns in various tissues.
Biological function summary

MASPIN influences apoptosis and cell motility playing a critical role in tumor suppression. It does not form part of a complex but interacts directly with extracellular matrix components. MASPIN can inhibit angiogenesis by reducing the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. Scientists have noted its role in maintaining normal cell architecture and inhibiting tumor cell invasion.

Pathways

Researchers place MASPIN in important signaling networks impacting cancer progression and metastasis. It participates in the PI3K/AKT pathway thereby influencing cell growth and survival. MASPIN also intersects with TGF-β signaling and related proteins like SMAD which mediate growth arrest and apoptosis. By altering these pathways MASPIN helps modulate responses to cellular stress and inhibit lethal growth in cancer cells.

MASPIN often associates with breast and prostate cancers. Its expression inversely correlates with tumor progression suggesting a protective role. MASPIN's interaction with proteins like p53 highlights its contribution to tumor suppression. Abnormal MASPIN presence links to aggressive disease phenotypes making it a potential biomarker for prognostic evaluation in oncology.

Target data

Tumor suppressor. It blocks the growth, invasion, and metastatic properties of mammary tumors. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity.
