Biological function summary
Tspan-8 impacts several cellular functions such as motility and invasion. It often acts as part of a complex interacting with integrins and other tetraspanins. Through these interactions Tspan-8 facilitates communication between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton. This interaction affects processes like cellular attachment and extracellular matrix remodeling contributing to its functions in normal physiological and pathological conditions.
Pathways
Numerous studies tie Tspan-8 to significant biological pathways particularly those involved in signal transduction and cellular movement. It connects closely with the integrin signaling pathway influencing cellular responses to external signals. In this context Tspan-8 interacts with proteins such as integrin αvβ6 contributing to diverse cellular outcomes. Additionally its role within the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathway is relevant for its function in cell plasticity and migration.

Function
Structural component of specialized membrane microdomains known as tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TERMs), which act as platforms for receptor clustering and signaling (PubMed : 27180357, PubMed : 36078095). Participates thereby in diverse biological functions such as cell signal transduction, migration and protein trafficking (PubMed : 25761241). Promotes ADAM17-mediated TNF-alpha processing through recruitment of ADAM17 to tetraspanin-enriched micro-domains (TEMs) (PubMed : 36078095). Forms a complex with RICTOR and integrin alpha3/ITGA3 to mediate mTORC2 activation and AKT1 phosphorylation leading to cell migration (PubMed : 25761241). Reduces apoptosis and autophagy induced by high glucose levels through forming a complex with mTOR and RICTOR (PubMed : 35904232). Contributes to the maintenance of intestinal epithelial barrier and plays a role in the regulation of intestine inflammation by switching interferon gamma receptor 1/IFNGR1 from clathrin-dependent to lipid raft-dependent endocytosis route to limit STAT1 activation magnitude and duration (PubMed : 37204469). Acts as a modulator of the endothelin axis by associating with endothelin converting enzyme ECE1 and regulating its activity of conversion of the endothelin-1 precursor to endothelin (PubMed : 37835445).
