P2RY8
P2RY8 (S-geranylgeranyl-glutathione receptor P2RY8) is a gene that drives cell growth when it is altered. The public catalogues list it as an oncogene driver, a tumour suppressor and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Lung cancer, Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and 1 more. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
Biology
G protein-coupled receptor for S-geranylgeranyl-glutathione (GGG), an endogenous metabolite present in lymphoid tissues. Couples the binding of GGG to the activation of GNA13 and downstream repression of AKT activation in lymphocytes defining their positioning and growth within lymphoid organs. In lymphoid follicles, confines B cells and follicular helper T cells in germinal centres (GCs) in response to GGG local gradients established by GGT5 (via GGG catabolism) and ABCC1 (via extracellular transport) with lower concentrations of GGG found in the follicular dendritic cell network region around which germinal centres are formed. In the bone marrow, also in response to GGG gradients established by GGT5 and ABCC1, it restricts chemotactic transmigration of B cells, T cells and NK cells from blood vessels to the bone marrow parenchyma. Contributes to GNA13-dependent pathway that suppresses GC B cell growth. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus Xp22.33 and Yp11.3 (HGNC).
