Roles of ADAM17 in tumor metastasis and its molecular mechanism / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

As an important member of the adisintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM) superfamily,ADAM17 can mediate a variety of membrane molecular hydrolysis off,such as adhesion molecules,cytokines,growth factors,etc,and play an important role in regulating tumor cell adhesion,apoptosis,metastasis and proliferation through the EGFR-PI3K-Akt pathway,Notch signaling pathway and other signaling pathways.The research of ADAM17 targeted drugs provides a new direction for cancer therapy.
