| Popis: |
The plectin gene can encode a cytoskeletal linking protein, plectin, known for its interaction with three critical components of the cellular cytoskeleton: intermediate filaments, microtubules, and actin filaments. In recent years, more and more studies have reported that plectin is closely related to tumorigenesis and development, exhibiting both tumor-suppressive and tumor-promoting functions. Here, we first introduce the molecular structure and function of plectin, and then we summarize the current understanding of the crucial role of plectin in cancer progression. Finally, we also discuss the possible reasons for the different roles of plectin expression in various types of cancer and highlight the double-edged sword role of plectin in tumor progression. The review aims to deepen the comprehensive understanding of plectin’s role in cancer and further help to develop novel therapeutic strategies and drug targets. |
