Reduced Expression in Immortalized Cells Protein (REIC)

Target
REIC
Molecular classification
Wnt signaling inhibitor, Secreted protein
01

Overview

REIC (Reduced Expression in Immortalized Cells) is a protein encoded by the Dkk-3 gene. It functions as a tumor suppressor and inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. Its expression is significantly reduced or absent in many cancer types, making it a potential therapeutic target for restoring Wnt pathway regulation and suppressing tumor growth.
