The Human CRBN Stable Cell Line, utilizing the HEK293 cell line, is engineered to express the CRBN (Cereblon) gene. CRBN is a protein that plays a role in the degradation of specific substrates via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It is involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including immune responses and the development of the nervous system. Mutations in CRBN have been associated with developmental disorders such as developmental delay, intellectual disability, and autism spectrum disorder. The HEK293 cell line, which is derived from human embryonic kidney cells, is chosen for its ability to support the expression of high levels of recombinant proteins. The CRBN stable cell line serves as a valuable tool for studying the function of CRBN and its role in disease, as well as for the development of therapeutic strategies targeting CRBN-mediated pathways.

p53, among the most extensively studied tumor suppressors, plays a critical role in regulating apoptosis triggered by DNA damage. The researchers discovered that CRBN protects against DNA damage-induced apoptosis in cell lines and primary cells. Mechanistic studies reveal that CRBN interacts directly with p53, inhibiting its interaction with anti-apoptotic regulators Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL. This interaction preserves mitochondrial membrane potential and suppresses caspase-3 and PARP-1 cleavage, thereby inhibiting apoptosis in response to etoposide-induced DNA damage. Crbn knockout mice further validate these findings, highlighting CRBN's role in regulating DNA damage response and suggesting therapeutic implications for DNA damage-associated diseases.

Figure 1 illustrates the creation of the Human CRBN Stable Cell Line (HEK293) by researchers to investigate the interaction between CRBN and p53. (doi: 10.1038/s41419-019-1317-7)Figure 1. The Human CRBN Stable Cell Line (HEK293) was created by the researchers to illustrate how CRBN interacts with p53. They used several techniques, including GST-tagged p53 incubation with His6-CRBN, co-transfection of GFP-CRBN and Flag-p53, and immunoprecipitation with anti-CRBN antibody. These methods clarified the relationship between CRBN's DNA-binding domain (DBD) and N terminus and p53. (Zhou L, et al., 2019)

The Human CRBN Stable Cell Line - HEK293 is a versatile tool for studying the functions of CRBN and its role in various diseases. Its applications span across: (1) Protein Degradation Studies: CRBN is involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, which is responsible for protein degradation. This cell line can be used to investigate the substrates of CRBN and how its activity affects cellular processes, such as protein quality control and cellular signaling. (2) Neurological Disorders Research: CRBN has been linked to neurological disorders, including intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. By expressing CRBN in this cell line, researchers can explore its role in neural development and function, potentially leading to new therapeutic approaches for these conditions. (3) Cancer Biology: CRBN's role in protein degradation makes it a potential regulator of cancer cell survival. This cell line can be utilized to study how CRBN influences cancer cell growth, survival, and response to chemotherapy, which could inform the development of targeted cancer therapies.
