TSPAN4 and Migrasomes in Atherosclerosis Regression Correlated to Myocardial Infarction and Pan-Cancer Progression
Cell adhesion & migration(2022)
Abstract
The migrasomes formation is mediated by the assembly of micron-scale tetraspanin macrodomains and the recruitment of tetraspanin 4 (TSPAN4). However, the physiological functions of TSPAN4 on migrasomes are less known. The TSPAN4 expression in macrophages in single-cell sequencing data, GEO datasets and TCGA database were determined. TSPAN4 expression was highly associated with atherosclerosis regression-related macrophages, intraplaque hemorrhage and ruptured plaques. TSPAN4 expression was upregulated in spontaneous MI and inducible MI mice model. Besides, TSPAN4 expression was highly correlated with tumor-associated macrophages. The study provided a critical role of TSPAN4 aberrant expression in the progression of atherosclerosis and pan-cancer, and the intervention of TSPAN4 and migrasomes may save dying patients' lives and improve their prognosis.
