CCN family

edit

NOV is a member of the CCN family of secreted, extracellular matrix (ECM)-associated signaling proteins (see also CCN intercellular signaling protein).[7][8] The CCN acronym is derived from the first three members of the family being identified, namely CYR61 (cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61, or CCN1), CTGF (connective tissue growth factor, or CCN2), and NOV. These proteins, together with WISP1 (CCN4), WISP2 (CCN5), and WISP3 (CCN6) comprise the six-member CCN family in vertebrates and have been renamed CCN1-6 in the order of their discovery by international consensus.[9]

Structure

edit

The human NOV protein contains 357 amino acids with an N-terminal secretory signal peptide followed by four structurally distinct domains with homologies to insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP), von Willebrand type C repeats (vWC), thrombospondin type 1 repeat (TSR), and a cysteine knot motif within the C-terminal (CT) domain.[10][11]

Function

edit

NOV regulates multiple cellular activities including cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It functions by direct binding to integrin receptors,[12][13][14] as well as other receptors such as NOTCH1[15] and fibulin 1c (FBLN1).[16] NOV is expressed during wound healing and induces angiogenesis in vivo.[12][14] It is essential for self-renewal of CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells from umbilical cord blood.[17] Nov is regulated by the hematopoietic transcription factor MZF-1.[18]

NOV can bind BMP2 and inhibit its functions in promoting osteogenic differentiation,[19] and stimulate osteoclastogenesis through a process that may involve calcium flux.[20] Overexpression of Nov in transgenic mice in osteoblasts antagonizes both BMP and Wnt-signaling and result in osteopenia.[21]

In February 2017, it was reported that the NOV protein was involved in regulatory T cell-mediated oligodendrocyte differentiation in the regeneration of myelin following damage to the myelin sheath. This finding revealed a new function for regulatory T cells that is distinct from their role in immunomodulation.[22] NOV (CCN3) has recently been implicated in mood disorders, notably in the postpartum period; these effects may be mediated by its effects on myelination [23]

Role in embryo development

edit

In contrast to the lethality of Cyr61 (CCN1) and Ctgf (CCN2) genetic knockout in mice, Nov-null mice are viable and largely normal, exhibiting only modest and transient sexually dimorphic skeletal abnormalities.[24] However, Nov-null mice show enhanced blood vessel neointimal thickening when challenged with vascular injury, indicating that NOV inhibits neoinitimal hyperplasia.[25]

Role in cancer

edit

Although NOV inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells,[26] it appears to promote metastasis.[27][28] Nov overexpression results in reduced tumor size in glioma cells xenografts,[29] but enhances metastatic potential in xenotransplanted melanoma cells.[30] NOV expression is associated with a higher risk of metastasis and worse prognosis in patients with cancers such as Ewing's sarcoma, melanoma, and breast cancer.[31] In chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), NOV is downregulated as a consequence of the kinase activity of BCR-ABL, a chimeric protein generated through the chromosomal translocation between chromosome 9 and 22.[32] Forced expression of NOV inhibits proliferation and restores growth control in CML cells, suggesting that NOV may be an alternate target for novel therapeutics against CML.[7][33]
