Abstract

Epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeat and discoidin Ⅰ-like domain 3 (EDIL3) is a extracellular matrix protein that produced and secreted by endothelial cells and plays important roles in embryonic development, angiogenesis, and limit inflammation. Several recent studies indicate that EDIL3 is aberrantly expressed in pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer, which is associated with cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. EDIL3 is widely participated in the regulating tumor initiation, progression and metastasis, and its abnormal expression is expected to provide a new method for diagnosis and therapy of cancers. Key words: Neoplasms; Angiogenesis; Apoptosis; EGF-like repeat and discoidin Ⅰ-like domain 3
