Abstract
The Neuronally expressed developmentally downregulated 4 (NEDD4), functioning largely as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, has been demonstrated to play a critical role in the development and progression of human cancers. In this review, to understand the regulatory mechanism(s) of NEDD4 as well as the signaling pathways controlled by NEDD4, we briefly describe the NEDD4 upstream regulators and its downstream ubiquitin substrates. Moreover, we further discuss its oncogenic roles in human malignancies. Therefore, targeting NEDD4 could be a potential therapeutic strategy for treatment of human cancers.
期刊介绍：
Current Cancer Drug Targets aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments on the medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, molecular biology, genomics and biochemistry of contemporary molecular drug targets involved in cancer, e.g. disease specific proteins, receptors, enzymes and genes.
Current Cancer Drug Targets publishes original research articles, letters, reviews / mini-reviews, drug clinical trial studies and guest edited thematic issues written by leaders in the field covering a range of current topics on drug targets involved in cancer.
As the discovery, identification, characterization and validation of novel human drug targets for anti-cancer drug discovery continues to grow; this journal has become essential reading for all pharmaceutical scientists involved in drug discovery and development.
