Survivin, also called baculoviral inhibitor of apoptosis repeat-containing 5 or BIRC5, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the BIRC5 gene. [5] Survivin is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family.

2024年12月24日 · BIRC5 (Baculoviral IAP Repeat Containing 5) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with BIRC5 include Adenocarcinoma and Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma. Among its related pathways are EML4 and NUDC in mitotic spindle formation and Gene expression (Transcription).

2021年1月11日 · BIRC5 is an immune-related gene that inhibits apoptosis and promotes cell proliferation. It is highly expressed in most tumors and leads to poor prognosis in cancer patients.

2024年12月5日 · BIRC5 is a promising diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in multiple cancers. Its association with immune subtypes suggests a potential role in the tumor immune microenvironment. These findings support BIRC5 as a therapeutic target for cancer treatment.

2019年1月1日 · BIRC5, also known as survivin, has been implicated in cell cycle progression and apoptosis avoidance. BIRC5 is highly expressed in embryonic tissues, however very low or absent in adult tissues. BIRC5 overexpression has been frequently associated to cancer development, a poor prognosis and chemoresistance.

The BIRC5 gene encodes for the Survivin protein, which is a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis family. Survivin is found in humans during fetal development, but generally not in adult cells thereafter. Previous studies have shown that Survivin is ...

BIRC5 is a very promising and well-studied therapeutic target because of its preferential expression in tumor cells of adult individuals. Here we review some of the most relevant evidences about the role of BIRC5 emerged in hepatocellular carcinomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, prostate tumors and tumors of the nervous system.

BIRC5/Survivin is known as a dual cellular functions protein that directly regulates both apoptosis and mitosis in embryonic cells during embryogenesis and in cancer cells during tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis.

BIRC5 is an immune-related gene that inhibits apoptosis and promotes cell proliferation. It is highly expressed in most tumors and leads to poor prognosis in cancer patients.

2023年11月19日 · BIRC5, a member of the apoptosis inhibitor (IAP) family, negatively regulates apoptosis or programmed cell death by inhibiting caspase activation. Due to these properties, overexpression of BIRC5 enables specific survival and division associated with …
