The secretin receptor is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SCTR gene. This protein is a G protein-coupled receptor which binds secretin and is the leading member (i.e., first cloned) of the secretin receptor family, also called class B GPCR subfamily.[5] SCTR belongs to the glucagon-VIP-secretin receptor family; its locus is 2q14.2.[6]
Interactions
The secretin receptor has been shown to interact with pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide.[7]
Clinical significance
Breast Cancer
SCTR neither uniformly upregulated or downregulated in tumors, hence, it has the potential to promote or suppress tumor proliferation.[8] In a study investigating methylation of the SCTR genes in breast cancer tissue, hypermethylation and downregulation were observed; pathway analysis in MCF-10A cells determined these most likely effect the G2/M stage checkpoint.[8] However, SCTR was overexpressed in MCF-7 cells, leading to increased proliferation and migration.[8] The study concluded that SCTR downregulates proliferation in normal breast cells and upregulates proliferation in breast cancer cells that have their proliferation downregulated by promoter methylation.[8]
Colorectal cancer
SCTR has been observed to be hypermethylated in colorectal cancer.[9] Moreover, because of the high frequency of hypermethylation at CpG islands in colorectal cancer, SCTR hypermethylation is an effective diagnostic marker that has achieved high diagnostic performance; colorectal cancer and precursor legions were able to be distinguished using SCTR methylation as a diagnostic tool.[10] Additionally, SCTR genes were found to be hypermethylated in cell-free DNA samples of colorectal cancer patients, but not in cells from healthy patients.[10]
