- CD36 is expressed in tumor cells and in stromal and immune cells, but the expression level varies in distinct cell types and tumor stages. CD36 expression is invariably low in the in situ stage but increases during metastasis, and CD36 plays essential roles in lipid homeostasis, angiogenesis, immune response, adhesion, and metastasis in cancer. Therefore, CD36 is regarded as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for cancer.
- Experimental animal models are an indispensable research tool for studying the effects of these antibodies (e.g., anti-CD36 antibodies) .
- Common experimental animals include mice, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, pigs, fish and so on.
- human and animal genes and protein sequences there are many differences between human and animal genes and protein sequences, and many human proteins cannot bind to the animal’s homologous proteins to produce biological activity, leading to that the results of many clinical trials do not match the results obtained from animal experiments.
- a large number of clinical studies are in urgent need of better animal models.
- the use of human cells or genes to replace or substitute an animal’s endogenous similar cells or genes to establish a biological system or disease model closer to human, and establish the humanized experimental animal models (humanized animal model) has provided an important tool for new clinical approaches or means.
- the genetically engineered animal model that is, the use of genetic manipulation techniques, the use of human normal or mutant genes to replace animal homologous genes, can be used to establish the genetically modified animal models that are closer to human gene systems.
- the humanized animal models have various important applications. For example, due to the presence of human or humanized genes, the animals can express or express in part of the proteins with human functions, so as to greatly reduce the differences in clinical trials between humans and animals, and provide the possibility of drug screening at animal levels.
- Human CD36 a transmembrane glycoprotein (GP) that is also known as FA translocase (FAT) , platelet GPIV, GP88, and scavenger receptor class B type 2 (SR-B2) , contains 472 amino acids and its estimated molecular weight is 53 kDa.
- the protein harbors two transmembrane domains, a large extracellular region containing ligand-binding sites, and a single short cytoplasmic tail at each terminal (N and C) .
- the extracellular domain of CD36 forms two hydrophobic cavities that mediate the uptake of hydrophobic molecules such as FAs, phospholipids, and cholesterol.
- CD36 the CD36, LIMP-2, Emp sequence homologous (CLESH) domain residues are negatively charged and can interact with TSP-1 repeat domain 2 (TSR) to regulate tumor angiogenesis, platelet aggregation, and other reactions, and CD36 also harbors a lysine-cluster region that can bind to negatively charged ligands.
- TSR TSP-1 repeat domain 2
- CD36 also harbors a lysine-cluster region that can bind to negatively charged ligands.
- Almost all end-stage oxidative products are negatively charged, including ox-LDL, apoptotic cells, and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) , which might be present at adequate levels in areas that exhibit heightened metabolism, such as in tumor tissues.
- AOPPs advanced oxidation protein products
- transmembrane form of CD36 a soluble form of the protein, sCD36, is also generated, and this form was shown to be composed of the exposed extracellular domain of transmembrane CD36 that is shed by plasma proteases or a specific subset of circulating micro-particles.
- CD36 is regulated by various factors, including environmental stimuli and transcriptional factors.
- Numerous biomolecules including fatty acids and oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) , could transcriptionally upregulate CD36 expression to further activate downstream oncogenic signaling and increase the capabilities for trafficking.
- ox-LDL can increase CD36-mediated phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3 activation to enhance stemness phenotypes of bladder cancer.
- a series of transcriptional factors can bind to the promoter of CD36 to increase its expression. In hepatocyte, environmental fatty acid stimulation could drive SOX2 overexpression, thus transcriptional upregulating CD36 to drive hepatic steatosis and even hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) .
- HCC hepatocellular carcinoma
- a positive loop has been found between STAT3 and CD36 in breast cancer cells to mediate tumor progression.
- STAT3 could directly bind to the promoter of CD36 to upregulate its expression.
- CD36 could also activate STAT3/NF- ⁇ B signaling axis to promote tumor angiogenesis and stemness.
- Post-translational modification is also critical the transcriptional upregulation of CD36 expression. For instance, O-GlcNAcylation increases CD36 protein level by modifying CD36 at S468 and T470. Hydrophobicity of CD36 protein was impaired due to the lack of palmitoylation by decreasing its distribution on the plasma membrane, thus reducing fatty acid uptake in hepatoma cells.
- DHHC Asp–His–His–Cys (DHHC) motif-containing palmitoyl acyltransferases, DHHC4 and DHHC5, was found to mediate CD36 palmitoylation, thus increasing fatty acid uptake.
- CD36 could bind to fatty acids to get depalmitoylated and recruit tyrosine kinase to phosphorylate JNK and VAVs to initiate endocytic fatty acid uptake.
