PSMD8 (26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 8) is a gene. The public catalogues list it as a drug target, and an approved or late-stage drug is recorded against it. Tied to Multiple myeloma, Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Mantle cell lymphoma.
Component of the 26S proteasome, a multiprotein complex involved in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. This complex plays a key role in the maintenance of protein homeostasis by removing misfolded or damaged proteins, which could impair cellular functions, and by removing proteins whose functions are no longer required. Therefore, the proteasome participates in numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, or DNA damage repair.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.63 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.81, genetic association 0.00, clinical 0.99).

No product in this corpus aims at PSMD8 yet. Drugs bind the molecule precisely: to switch it off, flag the cell for the immune system, or deliver a payload.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA lists PSMD8 among essential proteins; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA PSMD8: RNA tissue enhanced (skeletal muscle 667 nTPM); high antibody staining in 2 normal tissues; highest cancer staining prostate cancer (2 of 9 high). Distribution: 2 cancer families in the corpus carry a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Multiple myeloma, Lymphoma); Open Targets associates it with 2 specific cancer types at or above 0.5 (plasma cell myeloma, mantle cell lymphoma). (Rule 7 of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts.)
