| Name | membrane associated ring-CH-type finger 3 |
| Description | This gene encodes a member of the membrane-associated RING-CH (MARCH) family. The encoded protein is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that may be involved in regulation of the endosomal transport pathway. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013] |
| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nRecent studies have unveiled that MARCH3, a membrane‐associated RING-CH (MARCH) E3 ubiquitin ligase, plays a vital role in regulating endothelial barrier integrity. In endothelial cells, silencing MARCH3 fortifies cell-cell junctions by boosting occludin expression and enhancing the accumulation of other junctional proteins; this effect appears to be mediated by the inactivation of the FoxO1 transcriptional repressor, linking MARCH3 activity to cytokine-triggered permeability changes."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nIn immune cells, particularly monocytes, activation of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces MARCH3 expression, which in turn mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent down-regulation of the inhibitory FcγRIIb receptor. This regulation of FcγRIIb suggests a mechanism by which MARCH3 modulates the balance of activating and inhibitory signals during antibody-dependent responses, potentially enhancing the efficacy of monoclonal antibody therapies in cancer treatment."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nWhile the role of the MARCH family has been broadly examined in diverse cellular contexts including carcinogenesis, the functional contribution of specific members such as MARCH3 (and related proteins) in cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma, remains less well characterized.
