Background: The UNC5H family of proteins act as transmembrane receptors for netrin-1 and play a crucial role in axon guidance and migration of neural cells. In fact, UNC5H receptors express widely in cells that migrate, where they bind the G protein G Alpha 1-2 to inhibit G protein signaling. Additionally, UNC5H receptors induce apoptosis when cleaved by a caspase, producing an intracellular fragment containing a death domain, but this activity is blocked by the binding of netrin-1. The expression of UNC5H receptors is down-regulated in multiple cancers, including colorectal, breast, ovary, uterus, stomach, lung, and kidney cancers. Hence, in the absence of netrin-1, UNC5H receptors act as tumor suppressors by inhibiting anchorage-independent growth and invasion, but mutation of these receptors provides a potential mechanism for tumorigenicity. UNC5H2, also designated unc-5 homolog B or p53-regulated receptor for death and life protein 1 (p53RDL1) is highly expressed in brain with lower levels of expression observed in developing lung, cartilage, kidney and hematopoietic and immune tissues.
