摘要: 赖氨酰氧化酶样蛋白2(lysyl oxidase-like 2,LOXL2)是赖氨酰氧化酶(lysyl oxidase,LOX)家族成员之一,可催化细胞外基质中胶原蛋白与弹性蛋白共价交联,在肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma,HCC)中过表达可促进肝癌细胞生长、肿瘤侵袭及转移。近年来,越来越多的证据表明LOXL2在HCC的发生、发展中发挥着关键作用,较高水平的LOXL2是影响HCC患者预后的独立因素,提示其有作为治疗靶点的巨大潜力。

Abstract: Lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2), one of the members of the lysyl oxidase (LOX) family, can catalyze the covalent cross-linking of collagen and elastin in the extracellular matrix. It is found overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and can promote cell growth, tumor invasion and metastasis. In recent years, more and more evidences has showed that LOXL2 plays a key role in the occurrence and development of HCC. High level of LOXL2 is an independent factor affecting the prognosis of HCC, suggesting that it has great potential as therapeutic targets.
