PSCA (Prostate stem cell antigen) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Gastric & gastro-oesophageal junction cancer. 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
May be involved in the regulation of cell proliferation. Has a cell-proliferation inhibition activity in vitro. May act as a modulator of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) activity. In vitro inhibits nicotine-induced signalling probably implicating alpha-3:beta-2- or alpha-7-containing nAChRs. Location: Cell membrane (UniProt). Locus 8q24.3 (HGNC).
