Survivin is an anti-apoptotic protein, expressed in the G2/M cell cycle phase. At the onset of mitosis, survivin associates with microtubules of the mitotic spindle in a specific and saturable reaction that is regulated by microtubule dynamics. Disruption of survivin-microtubule interactions results in loss of survivin's anti-apoptotic function and increased caspase 3 activity. Survivin is also abundantly expressed in brain tissues (astrocytes and some neurons) of adult rats following traumatic brain injury. Survivin has been found co-expressed with NeuN (mature neuronal marker) and PCNA (a cell cycle protein. Survivin might affect regulation of neural cell proliferative responses after brain injury. Survivin is also an inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP), or programmed cell death, that is selectively overexpressed in common human cancers.Synonyms: API4, Apoptosis inhibitor 4, Apoptosis inhibitor survivin, Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing protein 5, Survivin
