Biochem Physiol Actions: SPOCK1 (sparc/osteonectin, cwcv and kazal-like domains proteoglycan (testican) 1) gene encodes a matricellular glycoprotein that belongs to a family of novel Ca2+-binding proteoglycans. The members of this family contain similar N-terminus, follistatin-like domain, and C-terminus. SPOCK1 is also called as testican-1 and is found to function in cell-cycle regulation, apoptosis, DNA repair, and metastasis. It is a key player in the recurrence of prostate cancer, invasion of glioblastoma, and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma. It activates PI3K/AKT pathway, which in turn, inhibits apoptosis and facilitates proliferation and metastasis of gallbladder cancer cells. It serves as a potential cancer prognostic marker. Defects in this gene may cause developmental delay and microcephaly. This gene may function in neurogenesis. It serves as a metastasis related biomarker in lung carcinoma and may be a potential therapeutic target.
