  • Translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) is involved in many basic biological processes, such as stress responses, cell division, as well as growth and development, both at the cellular and the organ level

  • It is not surprising that the dysregulation of TCTP occurs in various disease processes, such as cardiovascular, allergic and immune disorders

Summary

Role of TCTP in Cell Biological and Disease Processes

TCTP is involved in many basic biological processes, such as stress responses, cell division, as well as growth and development, both at the cellular and the organ level. An understanding of the core biological functions of TCTP, the mechanisms underlying its cellular regulation, and its involvement in disease processes, is essential. With this goal in mind, together with the contribution of all the authors, we compiled the Special Issue ‘Role of TCTP in. Through the inclusion of three review articles, we aimed to provide a current overview on a wide range of aspects pertaining to this protein, and four original papers highlight some recent developments in this area
