Biochem/physiol Actions

MAGEA4 (Melanoma antigen family A 4) induces growth in spontaneously transformed normal oral keratinocytes (NOK-SI) by blocking cell cycle at G1 phase as well as p53 mediated apoptosis. Studies have shown it to tumor suppressive in nature. Studies in 160 chronic HCV (hepatitis C virus) Egyptian patients egyptian patients show that this protein has potential as a marker for early detectiont of metastases.
