Research progress on zinc finger protein GLi in development and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world,and its morbidity and mortality have been high.The current preferred treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma is surgical treatment and liver transplantation,but the 5-year survival rate is still low.Due to the insidious onset of hepatocellular carcinoma,most patients have no special manifestations at the initial stage.At the time of diagnosis,they are already in the terminal stage and lose the opportunity of surgery.The Hh pathway plays a key role in the development of tumors.The zinc finger protein GLi plays an important role in tumorigenesis as a key transcription factor in the Hh pathway.At the same time,zinc finger protein GLi can play a key role in the invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma by inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition.In addition,the zinc finger protein GLi also interacts with various tumor-related factors to affect the occurrence and development and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.This article reviews the role of zinc finger protein GLi in the development and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
