Abstract
Ubiquitination is a prevalent post-translational modification that plays a crucial role in a wide range of pathophysiological processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, immune response, and DNA damage repair. Among the enzymes involved in ubiquitination, E3 ubiquitin ligases are particularly significant, serving as key regulators of numerous diseases, including tumours. This review focuses on HECW2 (HECT, C2, and WW domain-containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2, also known as NEDL2), providing a comprehensive overview of its interactors and its pathological roles in tumorous cancer and other diseases. The insights gained from this review may contribute to the development of novel treatment strategies for various diseases, particularly tumours.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Cell International publishes articles on all aspects of cancer cell biology, originating largely from, but not limited to, work using cell culture techniques.
The journal focuses on novel cancer studies reporting data from biological experiments performed on cells grown in vitro, in two- or three-dimensional systems, and/or in vivo (animal experiments). These types of experiments have provided crucial data in many fields, from cell proliferation and transformation, to epithelial-mesenchymal interaction, to apoptosis, and host immune response to tumors.
Cancer Cell International also considers articles that focus on novel technologies or novel pathways in molecular analysis and on epidemiological studies that may affect patient care, as well as articles reporting translational cancer research studies where in vitro discoveries are bridged to the clinic. As such, the journal is interested in laboratory and animal studies reporting on novel biomarkers of tumor progression and response to therapy and on their applicability to human cancers.
