Emerging role of inositol monophosphatase in cancer - 28/03/23

Abstract |
Inositol monophosphatase (IMPase) is an enzyme with two homologs—IMPA1 and IMPA2—that is responsible for dephosphorylating myo-inositol monophosphate to generate myo-inositol. IMPase has been extensively studied in neuropsychiatric diseases and is regarded as a susceptibility gene. Recently, emerging evidence has implied that IMPase is linked to cancer development and progression and correlates with patient survival outcomes. Interestingly, whether it acts as a tumor-promoter or tumor-suppressor is inconsistent among different research studies. In this review, we summarize the latest findings on IMPase in cancer, focusing on exploring the underlying mechanisms for its pro- and anticancer roles. In addition, we discuss the potential methods of IMPase regulation in cancer cells and the possible approaches for IMPase intervention in clinical practice.

Highlights |
• | The role of IMPase in cancer has not been revealed until recently. |
• | IMPase can act as both a tumor-promoter and tumor-inhibitor. |
• | IMPase is associated with a number of crucial biological processes in cancer cells. |
• | Cancer cell can modify IMPase at the levels of gene expression and enzyme-activity. |
• | Intervening IMPase with chemical compounds is a potential cancer treatment strategy. |
