Abstract
Olfactory receptors (ORs) are a class of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) widely distributed in olfactory sensory neurons and various non-olfactory tissues, serving significant physiological and pathological functions in the human body. Increasing evidence reveals the heightened expression of olfactory receptors in tumorous tissues and cells alongside normal tissues. Olfactory receptors have demonstrated influence over tumor cell proliferation and metastasis, establishing a close relationship with tumor initiation and progression. This review highlights the specific molecular actions and signaling pathways of olfactory receptors in the development of human tumors. The potential for precise tumor diagnosis and targeted therapy through therapeutic targeting of olfactory receptors as an adjunct anticancer treatment strategy is being considered.
嗅觉受体（ORs）是一类 G 蛋白偶联受体（GPCR），广泛分布于嗅觉神经元和各种非嗅觉组织中，在人体内发挥着重要的生理和病理功能。越来越多的证据表明，嗅觉受体在肿瘤组织和细胞中的表达与正常组织相同。嗅觉受体对肿瘤细胞的增殖和转移有影响，与肿瘤的发生和发展密切相关。本综述将重点介绍嗅觉受体在人类肿瘤发生发展过程中的特定分子作用和信号通路。通过将嗅觉受体作为辅助抗癌治疗策略的治疗靶点，为肿瘤的精确诊断和靶向治疗提供了可能性。
期刊介绍：
Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics (CBB) aims to publish papers on the nature of the biochemical and biophysical mechanisms underlying the structure, control and function of cellular systems
The reports should be within the framework of modern biochemistry and chemistry, biophysics and cell physiology, physics and engineering, molecular and structural biology. The relationship between molecular structure and function under investigation is emphasized.
Examples of subject areas that CBB publishes are:
· biochemical and biophysical aspects of cell structure and function;
· interactions of cells and their molecular/macromolecular constituents;
· innovative developments in genetic and biomolecular engineering;
· computer-based analysis of tissues, cells, cell networks, organelles, and molecular/macromolecular assemblies;
· photometric, spectroscopic, microscopic, mechanical, and electrical methodologies/techniques in analytical cytology, cytometry and innovative instrument design
For articles that focus on computational aspects, authors should be clear about which docking and molecular dynamics algorithms or software packages are being used as well as details on the system parameterization, simulations conditions etc. In addition, docking calculations (virtual screening, QSAR, etc.) should be validated either by experimental studies or one or more reliable theoretical cross-validation methods.
