摘要: 上皮性卵巢癌是威胁女性生命最严重的恶性肿瘤之一,极易发生侵袭转移。上皮-间质转化是卵巢癌细胞侵袭、转移过程中的重要现象,涉及多个信号通路和复杂的分子机制,其中E盒结合锌指蛋白(ZEB)家族是诱导上皮-间质转化过程的重要转录因子。ZEB家族能在转录水平直接或间接地抑制上皮性-钙黏蛋白等黏附蛋白和一系列极性蛋白的表达,促进上皮细胞向间质细胞的转化。研究ZEB家族在上皮性卵巢癌上皮-间质转化(EMT)过程中的作用将为阻断上皮性卵巢癌侵袭转移提供新的治疗靶点。

Abstract: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is one of the most malignant tumor in women,which is inclined to get invasion and metastasis. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is an important phenomenon in tumor progression. It involves many signal transduction pathways and complex molecular mechanisms. Zinc finger E-box-binding protein (ZEB),an essential transcription factor during EMT,can inhibit the expression of E-cadherin and polar protein,and thus promote the EMT process. Researches of ZEB and EMT in EOC will provide effective target to block the metastasis of EOC in the future.
