Humanin is a novel 24aa polypeptide identified in Alzheimer's disease-affected brain.
It is 99% homologous to mitochondrial 16s ribosomal RNA and functions as a novel neuroprotective and cytoprotective factor.
It specifically inhibits neuronal cell death induced by beta-amyloids and Alzheimer's disease causing FAD genes by competitively inhibiting access of FPRL1 receptor to beta-amyloids.
It acts as an anti-apoptotic factor by binding to Bcl-2/Bax family of pro-apoptotic factors including Bax, Bak, Bid and BimEL and inhibits their pro-apoptotic activity.
It activates JAK/STAT signaling pathway and is regulated by TRIM11.
It interacts with IGFBP-3 and specifically blocks IGFBP-3 induced cell death in glioblastoma cells.
Humanin is also expressed in colon and testis.
