Biochem/physiol Actions

Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 (LPA1) is a protein encoded by the LPAR1 gene in humans. It is constitutively localized in the nucleus of mammalian cells and may be involved in regulating intranuclear protein phosphorylation and signalling. LPA1 is differentially expressed in androgen-insensitive and LPA-responsive cells. It is not expressed in androgen-dependent and LPA-resistant cells.Its expression is significantly higher in the cancer compared with the benign tissues and may possibly act as a drug target to interfere with progression of prostate cancer. LPA1 helps in promoting cell proliferation, survival and migration by acting on cognate G protein-coupled receptors.
