It belongs to the Inhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) family carrying out its functions through inhibiting caspases and averting apoptosis. Survivin is expressed highly in embryonic tissues and various cancers but its expression in adult differentiated tissues is low. This selective expression pattern makes Survivin an attractive target for cancer research and therapeutic development.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nSurvivin aids cell division and regulates apoptosis. It plays a major role as a chromosomal passenger protein functioning in concert with other members of the chromosomal passenger complex including Aurora B kinase INCENP and Borealin. During mitosis Survivin helps ensure proper chromosome alignment segregation and cytokinesis. Its ability to inhibit apoptosis allows it to enhance cell survival contributing to tumor progression when deregulated.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSurvivin is part of the cell cycle regulation and apoptosis pathways. It plays an integral role in the mitotic spindle checkpoint working closely with Aurora B kinase to regulate mitosis. Additionally the protein interfaces with the extrinsic apoptosis pathway interacting with members like XIAP to prevent caspase activation and cell death. These interactions reveal Survivin's dual function in promoting mitosis and regulating apoptosis which is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nSurvivin is highly connected to cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Its overexpression links with cancers such as colorectal cancer where it promotes malignancy through inhibiting apoptosis and ensuring unchecked cell division. In neurodegenerative disorders abnormal regulation of Survivin could lead to insufficient cellular survival contributing to diseases like Alzheimer's. The relationship between Survivin and XIAP in cancer highlights its potential as a therapeutic target aiming to induce apoptosis in cancer cells by overcoming Survivin-mediated resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843821031593,"sku":"ab87202","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab87202","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
