Background: TNFAIP8, also known as TIPE, is a suppressor of apoptosis. High expression of both TIPE mRNA and protein has been detected in various cancer cell lines and clinical specimens compared to healthy tissues. Many reports have shown that there is a strong correlation between TIPE overexpression and cancer progression and poor prognosis in human solid cancers.
Methods: To illustrate the functional and clinical significance of TIPE in gastric cancer, we used reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and immunohistochemistry to measure TIPE expression in clinical gastric specimens. Then, TIPE expression was knocked down by using shRNA and anti-DR5ScFv, to examine different expressions of TIPE in BGC823 cell lines, while cell proliferation and apoptosis were induced.
Results: We found that there was a strong correlation between TIPE expression and TNM stage (P=0.044), tumor depth (P=0.016), lymph node metastasis (P=0.026), and distant metastasis (P=0.045). No significant correlation was found between TIPE expression with the patients' age (P=0.062) or sex (P=0.459). Anti-DR5ScFv induced TIPE depletion both in vitro and in vivo and resulted in apoptosis and suppression of proliferation.
Conclusion: Our results suggested that TIPE expression was associated with gastric cancer progression, and most importantly, suppressing TIPE expression might be an effective therapeutic strategy.

TIPE () has been identified as an oncogene and participates in tumor biology. However, how its role in the metabolism of tumor cells during melanoma development remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that TIPE promoted glycolysis by interacting with pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) in melanoma.

Introduction: Hypoxia stress renders aquatic animals more susceptible to bacterial disease, yet the underlying mechanism remains elusive.
Methods: We conducted an acute hypoxia stress experiment to investigate the impact of stress on the immune response of via transcriptome analysis, RT-qPCR and Western blot.
Results: Our results showed that acute hypoxia stress disrupted the tissue architecture, and significantly changed the gene expression profiles in the hepatopancreas of shrimp.

TIPE is a protein highly expressed in various cancers that promotes ferroptosis in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death caused by lipid peroxidation, and MGST1 is a critical enzyme that resists lipid peroxidation. This study explored how TIPE regulates MGST1 expression to inhibit ferroptosis and promote CRC proliferation.

Objective: TNFAIP8 and TIPE2 belong to TNFa-induced protein 8 (TNFAIP8/TIPE) family. They control apoptosis and direct leukocyte migration. Nucleus pulposus cell loss is a hallmark of intervertebral disc degeneration in response to injury, and inflammation may cause pain.

The tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 8 (TIPE, also TNFAIP8 or OXi-α) family is a newly discovered series of proteins involved in immune regulation and tumorigenesis. TIPE1, a member of the TIPE/TNFAIP8/OXi-α family, has emerged as an anticancer-drug target, as it promotes cancer cell apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation. The current study aimed to systematically reveal that TIPE1 regulates the activity of protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT)-1 and the subsequent methylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-3 to suppress oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) growth.
