Abstract:
Primary liver cancer is a common malignant tumor with complex pathogeneses and has the features of insidious onset, high degree of malignancy, and poor prognosis. The change in glycolytic pathway is one of the most important differences between tumor cells and normal cells, and tumor cells prefer to generate energy from glycolysis. Aerobic glycolysis is often associated with the progression and poor prognosis of primary liver cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can influence the glycolysis pathway in many tumors by regulating glucose uptake and the expression and activation of glycolytic enzymes and thus play an important role in the development and progression of primary liver cancer, which suggests that lncRNAs can be used as a therapeutic target for liver cancer. This article summarizes the influence of lncRNAs on primary liver cancer and glucose metabolism and related mechanisms, so as to find potential and effective targeted therapies for primary liver cancer.
