Abstract
Tumor metastasis suppressor gene-1 (TMSG-1) is a newly discovered tumor metastasis suppressor gene that plays important roles in promoting apoptosis and inhibiting invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. The inhibitory function of TMSG-1 in tumor cells may be related to vacuolar H+-ATPase and ceramide, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown. This review discusses the discovery of TMSG-1, the structure of TMSG-1 protein, as well as its possible mechanisms of action, expression in tumors and applications.
