| XBP-1 (X-box binding protein 1) is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in the unfolded protein response (UPR). XBP-1 is activated in response to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which occurs when the ER is overwhelmed with unfolded or misfolded proteins. XBP-1 has been shown to have both tumor-promoting and tumor-suppressing roles. XBP-1 is overexpressed in various types of cancer, including breast, lung, colon, and pancreatic cancer. In some cases, XBP-1 overexpression has been associated with poor prognosis and reduced survival rates. Targeting XBP-1 and the UPR has been proposed as a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment. Inhibitors of XBP-1 or other UPR components may be able to selectively kill cancer cells that are under ER stress, while sparing normal cells. |
| Mesothelioma is a type of cancer that develops from the thin layer of tissue that covers many of the internal organs. The area most commonly affected is the lining of the lungs and chest wall. |
