General description

TIGAR (TP53-induced glycolysis and apoptosis regulator) is a p53-inducible protein that is thought to diminish levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and this may also contribute to p53 protecting from genomic damage. TIGAR’s ability to lower ROS levels may also have an important role to play in the autophagic response. It is known to decrease levels of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate and in turn inhibits glycolysis. Under ischemic stress, recent research has shown that TIGAR and p53 can regulate cellular energy homeostasis and apoptosis.

Immunogen

The TIGAR protein has antioxidant activity that supports intestinal tissue repair and adenoma development. Using a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) model, we show that reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulation by TIGAR supports premalignant tumor initiation while restricting metastasis.

Cholinergic and sympathetic counter-regulatory networks control numerous physiological functions, including learning/memory/cognition, stress responsiveness, blood pressure, heart rate, and energy balance. As neurons primarily utilize glucose as their primary metabolic energy source, we generated mice with increased glycolysis in cholinergic neurons

Patients with mutated TP53 have been identified as having comparatively poor outcomes compared to those retaining wild-type p53 in many cancers, including squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck (SCCHN). We have examined the role of p53 in regulation
