Abstract: Liver cancer is a common malignant tumor in the world.Most patients with liver cancer were in the middle and late stages when diagnosed.Early growth response factor 1(Egr1)is a transcription factor that is induced during liver injury and regulates the expression of genes involved in cell proliferation,involved in cell proliferation and the role of Egr1 in liver injury and repair,and the lack of Egr1 will delay the process of liver regeneration.Recent studies have emphasized the dual role of Egr1 in the occurrence,development and treatment of liver cancer,thus affecting the progress of liver cancer.This article reviews the possible role of Egr1 in the occurrence,development and treatment of liver cancer,and analyzes in details the complex signal pathways involved by Egr1,so as to provide reference for clinical efficacy prediction and discovery of new therapeutic targets.

Key words: Egr1, Liver cancer, Occurrence and development, Treatment
