General Information of the m6A Target Gene (ID: M6ATAR00728)
Target Name Chloride intracellular channel protein 4 (CLIC4)
Synonyms
Intracellular chloride ion channel protein p64H1
    Click to Show/Hide
Gene Name CLIC4
Chromosomal Location 1p36.11
Family Chloride channel CLIC family
Function
Can insert into membranes and form poorly selective ion channels that may also transport chloride ions. Channel activity depends on the pH. Membrane insertion seems to be redox-regulated and may occur only under oxydizing conditions. Promotes cell-surface expression of HRH3. Has alternate cellular functions like a potential role in angiogenesis or in maintaining apical-basolateral membrane polarity during mitosis and cytokinesis. Could also promote endothelial cell proliferation and regulate endothelial morphogenesis (tubulogenesis).

Experiment 1 Reporting the m6A Methylation Regulator of This Target Gene [1]
Response Summary FTO suppresses PCa proliferation and metastasis through reducing the degradation of Chloride intracellular channel protein 4 (CLIC4) mRNA in an m6A dependent manner.
Target Regulation Up regulation
Responsed Disease Prostate cancer ICD-11: 2C82
In-vitro Model RWPE-1 Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_3791
PC-3 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0035
DU145 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_0105
LNCaP C4-2 Prostate carcinoma Homo sapiens CVCL_4782
In-vivo Model Approximately 2×106 PCa cells (DU145 transfected with shFTO and shNC) were injected subcutaneously in mice. The tumor volume (V = (0.5*length*width2)) was measured with Vernier caliper every week. Ten mice were randomly divided into two groups, 2×106 cells transfected with shFTO and shNC were resuspended with 100 uL PBS and injected into the mouse tail vein to create a metastatic model. After 7 weeks, the mice were anesthetized, and D-luciferin (#D-Luciferin, Apexbio) was injected intraperitoneally, then used the IVIS imaging system (Caliper Life Sciences) to visualize the luciferase signal.
