摘要
Wnt/β-catenin信号通路与肿瘤有着密切的关系,此通路的异常活化参与人类多种癌症的发病过程。肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma,HCC)在全球肿瘤中死亡率位居第3,但其发生发展的分子机制仍不清楚。目前,研究表明Wnt/β-catenin信号通路及其他相互作用信号通路,以及乙型肝炎病毒、丙型肝炎病毒相互作用蛋白等共同在HCC的发生发展过程中起着关键作用,因而,揭示该信号通路在HCC中的作用可为其早期诊断、治疗以及预后提供理论基础。现对Wnt/β-catenin信号通路在HCC中的作用及目前研究状况作一简要综述。
Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has a close relationship with cancer and is abnormally activated in many human cancers. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide, but the molecular mechanisms of HCC are still poorly understood. Current studies indicate that Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway plays a key role in the development and progression of HCC. Validating the role and mechanism of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in HCC will provide a theoretical basis for early diagnosis and treatment of HCC. In this review, we summarize the role of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in HCC and the progress of current researches.
