摘要: LIV-1,也称为SLC39A6/ZIP6,是锌转运蛋白ZIP家族中LZT亚家族成员之一,主要定位于细胞膜,包含有6~8个跨膜结构域,富含组氨酸残基,参与胚胎发育、肿瘤发生和发展等过程。有研究表明,LIV-1在食管鳞状细胞癌预后中具有重要作用,被证实与预后呈负相关,过表达影响预后,且其可能是一个潜在的治疗靶点。本文将对锌离子转运蛋白LIV-1与食管鳞癌的相关研究进展进行综述。

Abstract: LIV-1(SLC39A6/ZIP6),primarily located on the cell membrane,is one of the LZT subfamily members among the zinc transportprotein family.It possess six to eight transmembrane spanning domains,with regions of concentrated histidine residues,which has been shown to participate in the process of embryonic development as well as the growth and proliferation of tumors.It has been clearly established that LIV-1 played an important role in the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and its overexpression,which turned out to be a negative correlation upon the cancer′s prognosis has been verified to be a potent therapeutic target.Herein,the advances of zinc transporter LIV-1 and the potential significance of the transporter to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma are reviewed.

Key words: LIV-1, ZIP6, SLC39A6, Zinc transportprotein, Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
