Background

ADAM28 (A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 28) is a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase) family of proteins. Like other members of this family, ADAM28 contains several distinct domains, including a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin domain, a cysteine-rich domain, an EGF-like domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail. These domains confer diverse functions to ADAM28, including proteolytic activity, cell adhesion, cell signaling, and regulation of protein-protein interactions.ADAM28 is primarily expressed in the testis, but it is also found in other tissues such as the spleen, lymph nodes, and thymus. In addition to its presence in normal tissues, ADAM28 expression has been detected in certain pathological conditions, including various cancers such as breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and prostate cancer. Its expression in these cancers suggests potential roles in tumor progression, invasion, and metastasis.ADAM28 has been implicated in immune responses and inflammatory processes. It is expressed in immune cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells, where it may participate in cell-cell interactions, cytokine signaling, and immune cell activation.
