Mechanism of action of protein phosphatase 2A in the promotion and inhibition of hepatocellular carcinoma / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a major serine/threonine phosphatase involved in many signaling pathways associated with cell growth and proliferation, and it also regulates many cellular processes. With an in-depth exploration of PP2A in the process of cell activity, especially malignant tumors, the association between PP2A and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has attracted more and more attention in recent years; however, there is still a controversy over whether PP2A can promote or inhibit HCC. This article reviews the research advances in the mechanism of action of PP2A as a tumor factor in the regulation of HCC and target therapy.
