Suprabasin (SBSN), a gene with unknown function located in q13 region of chromosome 19, was first found to be expressed in the basal layer of the stratified epithelium in mouse and human tissues and was thought to be a potential precursor of keratinized capsules. However, in recent years, significant progress has been made in the study of SBSN in a variety of human diseases. One common theme appears to be the effect of SBSN on tumor progression, such as invasion, metastasis and resistance. However, the function and mechanism of action of SBSN is still elusive. In this study, we reviewed the literature on SBSN in the PubMed database to identify the basic characteristics, biological functions, and roles of SBSN in cancer and other diseases. In particular, we focused on the potential mechanisms of SBSN activity, to improve our understanding of the complex function of this protein and provide a theoretical basis for further research on the role of SBSN in cancer and other diseases.
