RhoA-ROCK2 signaling possesses complex pathophysiological functions in cancer progression and shows promising therapeutic potential.
The Rho GTPase signaling pathway is responsible for cell-specific processes, including actin cytoskeleton organization, cell motility, cell division, and the transcription of specific genes. The implications of RhoA and the downstream effector ROCK2 in cancer epithelial-mesenchymal transition, migration, invasion, and therapy resistance associated with stem cells highlight the potential of targeting RhoA/ROCK2 signaling in therapy. Tumor relapse can occur due to cancer cells that do not fully respond to adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, targeted therapy, or immunotherapy. Rho signaling-mediated mitotic defects and cytokinesis failure lead to asymmetric cell division, allowing cells to form polyploids to escape cytotoxicity and promote tumor recurrence and metastasis. In this review, we elucidate the significance of RhoA/ROCK2 in the mechanisms of cancer progression and summarize their inhibitors that may improve treatment strategies.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Cell International publishes articles on all aspects of cancer cell biology, originating largely from, but not limited to, work using cell culture techniques.
The journal focuses on novel cancer studies reporting data from biological experiments performed on cells grown in vitro, in two- or three-dimensional systems, and/or in vivo (animal experiments). These types of experiments have provided crucial data in many fields, from cell proliferation and transformation, to epithelial-mesenchymal interaction, to apoptosis, and host immune response to tumors.
Cancer Cell International also considers articles that focus on novel technologies or novel pathways in molecular analysis and on epidemiological studies that may affect patient care, as well as articles reporting translational cancer research studies where in vitro discoveries are bridged to the clinic. As such, the journal is interested in laboratory and animal studies reporting on novel biomarkers of tumor progression and response to therapy and on their applicability to human cancers.
