Lumican and tumor therapy resistance / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Lumican is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family, which is involved in cell processes related to tumorigenesis and development, such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition, cell proliferation, migration, invasion and adhesion. The expression of Lumican in different tumors is positively or negatively correlated with tumor progression, and can be used as a reference for tumor prognosis and efficacy evaluation. Further study of the correlation and potential mechanism between Lumican and tumor therapy resistance can provide new ideas for predicting clinical therapeutic efficacy.
