摘要
肺癌是世界上最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,其中非小细胞肺癌约占80%。肝细胞生长因子(hepatocyte growth factor,HGF)/上皮间质转化因子(mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor,MET)信号通路在许多生物学进程中都发挥着多效性影响,然而,在多种类型的肿瘤中都观察到HGF/MET信号通路的异常激活,并且通过生长因子受体和其他致癌性基因受体通路促进细胞增殖和转移。近年来,HGF/MET信号通路的异常激活被认为是对表皮生长因子受体酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor,EGFR-TKI)产生耐药的一个重要原因。本文将重点阐述该通路异常激活与非小细胞肺癌患者EGFR-TKI耐药的联系。
Lung cancer is one ofthe most common malignant tumors ofthe world, andnon-smallcelllungcancer (NSCLC) makes up about 80%. The hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) signal pathway has pleiotropic effects on many biological processes. However, aberrant HGF/MET signal pathway activation has been observed in many tumor types, and promotes cellular proliferation and metastasis via growth factor receptors and other oncogenic receptor pathways. In recent years, aberrant HGF/MET signal pathway activation has been considered a key step of resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) therapy. This review addresses how aberrant HGF/MET signal pathway activation being associated with drug resistance to EGFR-TKI therapy in NSCLC patients.
