Maneal: Regulator of Cell Growth, Differentiation and Survival

MANEAL (FLJ31434) is a protein that is expressed in various tissues of the body, including the brain, heart, and kidneys. It is a key regulator of cell growth and differentiation, and is involved in the development and maintenance of tissues such as hair, nails, and bones. Maneal has also been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses.

One of the unique features of Maneal is its ability to interact with a variety of different proteins, including the transcription factor TGF-β. TGF-β is a well-known regulator of cell growth and differentiation, and is involved in the development of many different tissues and organs. By interacting with TGF-β, Maneal has been shown to play a role in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival.

Another important function of Maneal is its role in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses. Inflammation is a natural response of the immune system to injury or infection, and can lead to the development of a range of harmful molecules that can cause tissue damage. Maneal has been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation by T cells, which are a key component of the immune system.

In addition to its role in cell growth, differentiation, and inflammation, Maneal has also been shown to play a role in the regulation of cell survival. This is important because damaged or dysfunctional tissues can be difficult to repair or regenerate, and can lead to a range of health problems. Maneal has been shown to play a role in the regulation of cell survival by preventing the clearance of damaged cells by the immune system.

Despite these many important functions, Maneal is still an relatively little-known protein. There is currently limited research on the specific actions of Maneal, and more research is needed to fully understand its role in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival.

In conclusion, Maneal is a protein that is expressed in various tissues of the body and is involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. It has also been shown to play a role in the regulation of inflammation and immune responses. Further research is needed to fully understand the specific actions of Maneal and its role in the regulation of cells and tissues.
