Abstract:
Alterations of cell adhesion of tumor cells is the initial step of invasion and metastasis of tumor cells.Integrin receptors are cell surface receptors with critical functions in cell adhesion and migration,which can mediate many signaling pathway occurred,including the integrin/FAK signaling pathway,directly or indirectly affecting tumor recurrence and metastasis.Integrin/FAK signaling pathway is thought to play an impartant role in integrin-mediated signaling transduction pathway leading to adhesion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma.Talin is the first cytoskeletal protein that has been proposed to act as the final common step in integrin activation,which is a major component of the focal adhesion.This study reviews the construction and function of talin,its reaction with integrin/FAK signaling pathway,as well as its relationship with hepatocellular carcinoma and other tumors.
