TIGAR also known as TP53-Induced Glycolysis and Apoptosis Regulator is a protein involved in cellular metabolism. With a mass of approximately 28 kDa TIGAR regulates glycolysis by acting similarly to fructose-26-bisphosphatase. It is expressed predominantly in tissues with active cellular proliferation such as the brain and liver. TIGAR functions mechanically to inhibit the glycolytic flux by decreasing levels of fructose-26-bisphosphate which is important for various cellular activities.
Biological function summary

TIGAR plays a critical role in controlling the oxidative stress within cells. By lowering glycolytic rates it shifts cellular metabolism toward the pentose phosphate pathway boosting the production of NADPH and reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS). This protein does not form a part of a larger complex operating independently to exhibit its effects. It also influences cellular survival mechanisms by mitigating oxidative stress which is important for cell health.

Pathways

TIGAR is involved with both apoptosis and carbohydrate metabolism pathways where it acts to support cellular metabolism and survival. Within these pathways it interacts closely with the tumor suppressor protein p53 which regulates TIGAR expression. Another related protein is AMPK which also plays roles in energy balance and is influenced by changes in cellular metabolic status. TIGAR's actions help in cellular adaptation during metabolic stress maintaining energy homeostasis.

TIGAR is linked to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Its role in reducing oxidative stress makes it significant in cancer as elevated levels can sometimes promote cancer cell survival. Involvement with p53 is particularly notable as alterations in p53 pathways are common in various cancers. In neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's TIGAR's function in managing oxidative stress can affect neuronal survival. Dysregulation of related metabolic processes can contribute to disease progression highlighting the importance of TIGAR in these contexts.

Target data

Fructose-bisphosphatase hydrolyzing fructose-2,6-bisphosphate as well as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (PubMed : 19015259). Acts as a negative regulator of glycolysis by lowering intracellular levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate in a p53/TP53-dependent manner, resulting in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) activation and NADPH production (PubMed : 16839880, PubMed : 22887998). Contributes to the generation of reduced glutathione to cause a decrease in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) content, correlating with its ability to protect cells from oxidative or metabolic stress-induced cell death (PubMed : 16839880, PubMed : 19713938, PubMed : 22887998, PubMed : 23726973, PubMed : 23817040). Plays a role in promoting protection against cell death during hypoxia by decreasing mitochondria ROS levels in a HK2-dependent manner through a mechanism that is independent of its fructose-bisphosphatase activity (PubMed : 23185017). In response to cardiac damage stress, mediates p53-induced inhibition of myocyte mitophagy through ROS levels reduction and the subsequent inactivation of BNIP3. Reduced mitophagy results in an enhanced apoptotic myocyte cell death, and exacerbates cardiac damage (By similarity). Plays a role in adult intestinal regeneration; contributes to the growth, proliferation and survival of intestinal crypts following tissue ablation (PubMed : 23726973). Plays a neuroprotective role against ischemic brain damage by enhancing PPP flux and preserving mitochondria functions (By similarity). Protects glioma cells from hypoxia- and ROS-induced cell death by inhibiting glycolysis and activating mitochondrial energy metabolism and oxygen consumption in a TKTL1-dependent and p53/TP53-independent manner (PubMed : 22887998). Plays a role in cancer cell survival by promoting DNA repair through activating PPP flux in a CDK5-ATM-dependent signaling pathway during hypoxia and/or genome stress-induced DNA damage responses (PubMed : 25928429). Involved in intestinal tumor progression (PubMed : 23726973).
