Background: Mesothelin

Mesothelin N-terminal, commonly known as Megakaryocyte Potentiating Factor (MPF), is a 31 kDa soluble protein that was originally identified in an PHC-Y5 culture system where it exhibited megakaryocyte potentiating activity (1). MPF is closely related to mesothelin (MSLN), a 40 kDa glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI)-linked protein that is highly overexpressed in various types of cancer, such as mesothelioma, ovarian and pancreatic cancers (2). Both MPF and MSLN originate from a common 71 kDa precursor protein that harbors a furin cleavage site between amino acid residues 288-293. The 31 kDa soluble N-terminal MPF fragment is secreted into blood and the C-terminal 40 kDa fragment remains membrane-bound and classified as mature mesothelin (3). Mouse MPF is composed of residues 36-288 from the precursor protein and contains one N-linked glycosylation site (N93) and one phosphorylated serine (S202). Mouse MPF shares 56% and 84% sequence identity with human and rat MPF, respectively. It is expressed mainly in the heart and lungs (4) and can be upregulated in the presence of Wnt-1 (5). MSLN was shown to be capable of binding to cancer antigen 125/mucin16 (CA125/MUC16). Apart from its role as a megakaryocyte potentiating cytokine, MPF may have the potential to serve as a biomarker for detection and monitoring of malignant mesothelioma and related cancers (6).
