PA1-32672 detects GPCR GPCR150 from human samples.
GPR160, part of the Class A family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), is prominently expressed in mouse embryonic stem cells and has been associated with various human solid tumors, particularly prostate cancer. The gene's expression contributes to the self-renewal and pluripotency of stem cells by participating in critical signaling pathways, including the JAK/STAT pathway, which is crucial for maintaining the stem cell cycle. High levels of GPR160 expression are observed in prostate cancer, though its role in disease progression is independent of the CARTp-mediated signaling pathway. Investigations into GPR160 have revealed its potential as a biomarker for prostate cancer. Additionally, it regulates mycobacteria entry into macrophages, implicating its functionality in immune responses. The gene's mechanisms of action, especially within cancer contexts, are subjects of ongoing research aimed at understanding its precise contributions to cellular proliferation and disease phenotypes.
