[[Chitinase]]s catalyze the hydrolysis of [[chitin]], which is an abundant [[glycopolymer]] found in insect [[exoskeleton]]s and fungal cell walls. The [[glycoside hydrolase]] 18 family of chitinases includes eight human family members. This gene encodes a [[glycoprotein]] member of the glycosyl hydrolase 18 family. The protein lacks chitinase activity and is secreted by activated [[macrophage]]s, [[chondrocyte]]s, [[neutrophil]]s and [[synovial membrane|synovial cells]]. The protein is thought to play a role in the process of inflammation and tissue remodeling.<ref name="entrez"/> YKL-40 lacks [[chitinase]] activity due to mutations within the active site (conserved sequence: DXXDXDXE ; YKL-40 sequence: DGLDLAWL).<ref name=":0" />

YKL-40 has been linked to activation of the [[AKT]] pro-survival (anti-[[Apoptosis|apoptotic]]) signaling pathway. YKL-40 promotes [[angiogenesis]] through [[Vascular endothelial growth factor|VEGF]]-dependent and independent pathways.<ref name="pmid21385870">{{cite journal|date=April 2011|title=Role of YKL-40 in the angiogenesis, radioresistance, and progression of glioblastoma|journal=J.

CHI3l1 is induced by a variety of cancers and in the presence of [[SEMA7A|semaphorin 7A]] (protein) can inhibit multiple anti-tumor immune system responses. Activating an antiviral immune pathway known as the RIG-like helicase (RLH) has the ability to counter CHI3l1 induction. Cancer cells can offset RLH by stimulating [[NLRX1]]. [[Polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid|Poly(I:C)]], an RNA-like molecule, can stimulate RLH activation. RLH activation can also inhibit the expression of receptor [[IL13RA2|IL-13Rα2]]<nowiki/>pand lmonary metastasisre. It stores [[Natural killer cell|NK cell]] accumulation and activation. It augments the expression of [[Interferon type I|IFN-α/β]], [[chemerin]] and its receptor ChemR23, p-cofilin, [[LIMK2]] and [[PTEN (gene)|PTEN]] and inhibiting [[BRAF (gene)|BRAF]] and [[NLRX1]] in a MAVS-dependent manner.<ref name=":1">{{cite journal | vauthors = Ma B, Herzog EL, Moore M, Lee CM, Na SH, Lee CG, Elias JA | title = RIG-like Helicase Regulation of Chitinase 3-like 1 Axis and Pulmonary Metastasis | journal = Scientific Reports | volume = 6 | pages = 26299 | date = 2016-05-20 | pmid = 27198666 | pmc = 4873814 | doi = 10.1038/srep26299 }}</ref>

It is assumed that YKL-40 plays a role in cancer cell proliferation, survival, invasiveness and in the regulation of cell-matrix interactions. It is suggested that YKL-40 is a marker associated with a poorer clinical outcome in genetically defined subgroups of different tumors. YKL-40 was recently introduced into (restricted) clinical practice. A few techniques are available for its detection.<ref name=":0" />
 
YKL-40 is a [[T helper cell|Th2]] promoting [[cytokine]] that is present at high levels in the [[tumor microenvironment]] and in the serum of cancer patients.<ref name="pmid19134206">{{cite journal | vauthors = Høgdall EV, Ringsholt M, Høgdall CK, Christensen IJ, Johansen JS, Kjaer SK, Blaakaer J, Ostenfeld-Møller L, Price PA, Christensen LH | title = YKL-40 tissue expression and plasma levels in patients with ovarian cancer | journal = BMC Cancer | volume = 9 | issue = | pages = 8 | year = 2009 | pmid = 19134206 | pmc = 2645422 | doi = 10.1186/1471-2407-9-8 }}</ref><ref name="pmid22102082">{{cite journal | vauthors = Bernardi D, Padoan A, Ballin A, Sartori M, Manara R, Scienza R, Plebani M, Della Puppa A | title = Serum YKL-40 following resection for cerebral glioblastoma | journal = J.

Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1), also known as YKL-40, is a secreted glycoprotein that is approximately 40kDa in size that in humans is encoded by the CHI3L1 gene.[1][2][3] The name YKL-40 is derived from the three N-terminal amino acids present on the secreted form and its molecular mass. YKL-40 is expressed and secreted by various cell-types including macrophages, chondrocytes, fibroblast-like synovial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, and hepatic stellate cells. The biological function of YKL-40 is unclear. It is not known to have a specific receptor. Its pattern of expression is associated with pathogenic processes related to inflammation, extracellular tissue remodeling, fibrosis and solid carcinomas[4] and asthma.[5]

Function

Chitinases catalyze the hydrolysis of chitin, which is an abundant glycopolymer found in insect exoskeletons and fungal cell walls. The glycoside hydrolase 18 family of chitinases includes eight human family members. This gene encodes a glycoprotein member of the glycosyl hydrolase 18 family. The protein lacks chitinase activity and is secreted by activated macrophages, chondrocytes, neutrophils and synovial cells. The protein is thought to play a role in the process of inflammation and tissue remodeling.[3] YKL-40 lacks chitinase activity due to mutations within the active site (conserved sequence: DXXDXDXE ; YKL-40 sequence: DGLDLAWL).[4]

Regulation and mechanism

YKL-40 has been linked to activation of the AKT pro-survival (anti-apoptotic) signaling pathway. YKL-40 promotes angiogenesis through VEGF-dependent and independent pathways.[6]

YKL-40 is a migration factor for primary astrocytes and its expression is controlled by NFI-X3, STAT3, and AP-1.[7]

CHI3l1 is induced by a variety of cancers and in the presence of semaphorin 7A (protein) can inhibit multiple anti-tumor immune system responses. Activating an antiviral immune pathway known as the RIG-like helicase (RLH) has the ability to counter CHI3l1 induction. Cancer cells can offset RLH by stimulating NLRX1. Poly(I:C), an RNA-like molecule, can stimulate RLH activation. RLH activation can also inhibit the expression of receptor IL-13Rα2pand lmonary metastasisre. It stores NK cell accumulation and activation. It augments the expression of IFN-α/β, chemerin and its receptor ChemR23, p-cofilin, LIMK2 and PTEN and inhibiting BRAF and NLRX1 in a MAVS-dependent manner.[8]

Cancer

It is assumed that YKL-40 plays a role in cancer cell proliferation, survival, invasiveness and in the regulation of cell-matrix interactions. It is suggested that YKL-40 is a marker associated with a poorer clinical outcome in genetically defined subgroups of different tumors. YKL-40 was recently introduced into (restricted) clinical practice. A few techniques are available for its detection.[4]

YKL-40 is a Th2 promoting cytokine that is present at high levels in the tumor microenvironment and in the serum of cancer patients.[9][10] Elevated levels of YKL-40 correlate strongly with stage and outcome of various types of cancer, which establish YKL-40 as a biomarker of disease severity.[11] Targeting YKL-40 with neutralizing antibodies is effective as a treatment in animal models of glioblastoma multiforme.[12]

YKL-40 also enhances tumor survival in response to gamma-irradiation.[6]
