Background: Ly6H

Lymphocyte Antigen 6 Family Member H (Ly6H), also known as NMLy6, is a member of the Ly6/urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) superfamily of proteins. LY6 proteins are primarily glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored cell surface glycoproteins characterized by the presence of an LU domain. The LU domain is an ~80 amino acid (aa) region with a conserved disulfide bridge arrangement resulting in a three-fingered structural motif (1). The mature extracellular domain of human Ly6H shares 92% aa sequence identity with mouse Ly6H. Ly6H is predominantly expressed in normal brain tissue and can modulate alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor ( alpha7 nAChR) signaling (2, 3). The alpha7 nAChR signaling is associated with several conditions, such as nicotine addiction, lung and liver cancer, preeclampsia, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease (2, 3). The alpha7-subunits are controlled by prototoxins in the Ly6 family. Specifically, Ly6H reduces cell-surface expression and calcium signaling by alpha7 nAChRs, thus suppressing alpha7 nAChR function (2, 3). Ly6H expression is increased in tumors associated with several cancer types (4). The increase in expression is associated with poor outcome on patient survival in breast, lung, ovarian, gastric, and colorectal cancer (4).
