ASCL1
-
Official Full Name
achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 1
-
Overview
This gene encodes a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) family of transcription factors. The protein activates transcription by binding to the E box (5-CANNTG-3). Dimerization with other BHLH proteins is required for efficient DNA binding. This protein plays a role in the neuronal commitment and differentiation and in the generation of olfactory and autonomic neurons. Mutations in this gene may contribute to the congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) phenotype in rare cases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] -

Ask a questionYes, ASCL1 is associated with several human diseases, including neuroblastoma and small cell lung cancer, where it is often overexpressed and contributes to tumor development.
Yes, ASCL1 is a key regulator of neurogenesis. It acts as a transcription factor that directs the differentiation of neural stem cells into neurons during development.
Yes, ASCL1, in combination with other transcription factors, can induce the reprogramming of somatic cells into neurons in vitro, demonstrating its ability to change cell fate.
Yes, ASCL1 is critical for the formation of several neuronal subtypes, including subtypes in the cerebral cortex, olfactory bulb, and autonomic ganglia.
Although ASCL1 is primarily associated with neural development, it is also expressed in specific regions of the developing lung, where it influences lung neuroendocrine cell differentiation.
ASCL1 is actively being researched as a potential therapeutic target in neuroblastoma and small cell lung cancer. Developing drugs that inhibit ASCL1 may help treat these diseases.
While ASCL1's role in adult neurogenesis is not fully understood, studies suggest that it may play a role in the generation of newborn neurons in certain brain regions, such as the olfactory bulb.
