Background: Gelsolin also known as GNS is an actin-binding protein that is a key regulator of actin filament assembly and disassembly. It is one of the most potent members of the actin-severing gelsolin/villin superfamily. The gene was assigned to human chromosome 9q33.2. Gelsolin is also known as brevin, or actin-depolymerizing factor, it is the principal intracellular and extracellular actin-severing protein. Gelsolin and Gc protein together constitute the extracellular actin-scavenger system which prevents the toxic effects of actin release into the extracellular space under circumstances of cell necrosis. It may have therapeutic potential as a mucolytic agent in CF patients. The antiapoptotic activity of Gelsolin seems to prevent a step leading to cytochrome c release from the mitochondria into the cytosol.
