NCBI Summary for CEACAM6
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA; MIM 114890) is one of the most widely used tumor markers in serum immunoassay determinations of carcinoma. An apparent lack of absolute cancer specificity for CEA probably results in part from the presence in normal and neoplastic tissues of antigens that share antigenic determinants with the 180-kD form of CEA (Barnett et al., 1988 [PubMed 3220478]). For background information on the CEA family of genes, see CEACAM1 (MIM 109770).[supplied by OMIM]

Research Articles on CEACAM6
1. CEACAM6-associated signaling pathways could be potential targets for the development of biomarkers to predict the response of patients to adenovirus-based therapies, as well as for the development of more potent adenovirus-based therapeutics2. Because CEACAM6 acts as an antiapoptotic factor and stabilizes surfactant function, in addition to a putative role in innate defense against bacteria, we propose that it is a multifunctional alveolar protein3. Data show that desensitization of neutrophils to any two CEACAMs, 1, 3, 6, or 8, results in selective desensitization to those two CEACAMs, while the cells remain responsive to the other two neutrophil CEACAMs.4. CEACAM6 is overexpressed in borderline and invasive mucinous ovarian neoplasms.5. findings suggest that CEA (CEACAM5) and CEACAM6 are major target genes for Smad3-mediated TGF-beta signaling.6. All the leukemic samples showed overexpression of CEACAM6 and 8 when compared with normal granulocytes.7. data support an important role for CEACAM6 in endocrine resistance in breast cancer, which can serve as a powerful predictor of future recurrence8. Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)9. The expression of CEACAM6 in ADH lesions is strongly associated with the development of IBC, therefore, it can be applied as a diagnostic marker either singly or in combination with other marker(s) to predict IBC development in women with ADH lesions.10. CEACAM6 is a biological tumor marker for epithelial ovarian cancers.11. the results show that recognition of CEA and CEACAM6, but not CEACAM1, is accompanied by tight attachment to bacteria of cell surface microvilli-like extensions12. For all tumors, the amount of CEACAM6 expressed was greater than that of CEACAM5, and reflected tumor histotype.13. CEACAM6 subdomains involved in intercellular adhesion activity and subdomains involved in inhibition of cell differentation are identified and their respective activities are independently blocked.14. overexpression among human malignancies, immunological targeting of this tumor antigen may have therapeutic applicability15. Levels of CEACAM6 expression can modulate pancreatic adenocarcinoma cellular invasiveness in a c-Src-dependent manner16. Data show that variants of Neisseria gonorrhoeae that bind to human carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecules (CEACAMs) 1 and 6 failed to induce detachment and, instead, promoted enhanced host cell adhesion to the ECM.17. CEACAM6 gene silencing reversed the acquired anoikis resistance of tumor cell lines and inhibited in vivo metastatic ability18. CEACAM6 is an important determinant of pancreatic adenocarcinoma malignant cellular behavior19. CD66c is regulated in a manner distinct from other myeloid antigens in childhood lymphoblastic leukemia20. Overexpression of CEACAM6 disrupts tissue architecture and blocks colonocyte differentiation
