ABSTRACT
Angiopoietin4(ANGPT4) which plays a significant role in endothelial cell proliferation, survival, angiogenesis and expansion in tumors and other pathological states is a significant regulator of tumor angiogenesis. ANGPT4 expression is enhanced in many cancer cells. For example, the overexpression of ANGPT4 promotes the formation, development and progress of lung adenocarcinoma, glioblastoma and ovarian cancer. Related studies show that ANGPT4 encourages the proliferation, survival and invasion of tumor cells, while promoting the expansion of the tumor vascular system and affecting the tumor immune microenvironment. ANGPT4 can also promote carcinogenesis by affecting the ERK1/2, PI3K/AKT and other signal pathways downstream of tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin-like and EGF-like domains 2(TIE2) and TIE2. Therefore, ANGPT4 may be a potential and significant biomarker for predicting malignant tumor progression and adverse outcomes. In addition, inhibition of ANGPT4 may be a meaningful cancer treatment. This paper reviews the latest research results of ANGPT4 in preclinical research, and emphasizes its role in carcinogenesis. Additional research on the carcinogenic function of ANGPT4 could provide new insights into cancer biology and novel methods for cancer diagnosis and treatment.
