Abstract
Guanylate-binding protein 5 (GBP5) is an interferon-γ (IFN-γ)-induced GTPase (Guanosine Triphosphatease) family member. It contains highly conserved guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding and hydrolysis domains, particularly within myeloid and T cells. Extensive research has underscored the critical role of GBP5 in various biological processes, including inflammation, cancer cell migration, and viral defence. In addition, GBP5 is involved in a range of physiological processes and is implicated in various pathological conditions, including inflammation and immune-related disorders. Recent studies have revealed the significant role of GBP5 in the initiation and progression of cancer. The impact of GBP5 on cancer varies depending on the specific cancer type and its underlying mechanisms of action. GBP5 can modulate multiple signalling pathways, including those involved in cell proliferation, cell cycle regulation, invasive metastasis, and the maintenance of homeostasis in vivo, all of which contribute to the progression of cancer. Consequently, in addition to functioning as a downstream molecule in the IFN-γ signalling pathway, GBP5 can influence the onset and progression of various diseases. This article examines the role of GBP5 in inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and malignancies while also exploring its potential therapeutic implications. We aim to deepen our understanding of GBP5 and assess its prospective applications in clinical diagnosis and treatment.
期刊介绍:
Inflammopharmacology is the official publication of the Gastrointestinal Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) and the Hungarian Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology Society (HECPS). Inflammopharmacology publishes papers on all aspects of inflammation and its pharmacological control emphasizing comparisons of (a) different inflammatory states, and (b) the actions, therapeutic efficacy and safety of drugs employed in the treatment of inflammatory conditions. The comparative aspects of the types of inflammatory conditions include gastrointestinal disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn''s disease), parasitic diseases, toxicological manifestations of the effects of drugs and environmental agents, arthritic conditions, and inflammatory effects of injury or aging on skeletal muscle. The journal has seven main interest areas:
-Drug-Disease Interactions - Conditional Pharmacology - i.e. where the condition (disease or stress state) influences the therapeutic response and side (adverse) effects from anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanisms of drug-disease and drug disease interactions and the role of different stress states
-Rheumatology - particular emphasis on methods of measurement of clinical response effects of new agents, adverse effects from anti-rheumatic drugs
-Gastroenterology - with particular emphasis on animal and human models, mechanisms of mucosal inflammation and ulceration and effects of novel and established anti-ulcer, anti-inflammatory agents, or antiparasitic agents
-Neuro-Inflammation and Pain - model systems, pharmacology of new analgesic agents and mechanisms of neuro-inflammation and pain
-Novel drugs, natural products and nutraceuticals - and their effects on inflammatory processes, especially where there are indications of novel modes action compared with conventional drugs e.g. NSAIDs
-Muscle-immune interactions during inflammation [...]
