Abstract
Erythropoietin-producing hepatocyte (Eph) receptors are the largest subgroup of the receptor tyrosine kinase family and are involved in the physiological processes such as embryonic development, angiogenesis, and axon guidance. Recent studies have shown that Eph receptors are overexpressed in liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma tissues and play an important role in the growth, invasion, and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma. This article explores the mechanism of action of Eph receptors in liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma and points out that Eph receptors may be important molecules in the development and progression of liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
