Abstract

Accumulating evidence has showed that sushi-repeat-containing protein X-linked 2 (SRPX2) is an abnormal expression in a variety of cancers and involved in cancer carcinogenesis, chemosensitivity, and prognosis, which mainly promote cancer cell metastasis, invasion, and migration by regulating the uPAR/integrins/FAK signaling pathway, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), angiogenesis, and glycosylation. Inflammation has been regarded as a key role in regulating cancer initiation, progression, EMT, and therapeutics. Furthermore, SRPX2 exhibited excellent antifibrosis effect via the TGFβR1/SMAD3/SRPX2/AP1/SMAD7 signaling pathway. Therefore, this review provides compelling evidence that SRPX2 might be a therapeutic target for inflammation and cancer-related inflammation for future cancer therapeutics.
