对细胞凋亡在细胞生长平衡和正常内环境平衡中的基本作用的认识,使人们认识到它的缺失对肿瘤的发生有重要作用。恢复凋亡信号对选择性靶向肿瘤细胞的机制意义在很大程度上利用了caspase家族死亡诱导分子作为强大的治疗平台来开发有效的抗癌策略。在临床前模型和临床试验中,一些凋亡抑制剂通过靶向内源性和外源性的凋亡途径并恢复人类肿瘤的凋亡能力来诱导caspase的表达和活性。此外,半胱氨酸天冬氨酸氨基转移酶的上调是肿瘤对放射治疗和辅助化疗耐药的致敏机制。本文综述了半胱氨酸氨基转移酶在细胞凋亡调控中的作用,以及如何重新激活半胱氨酸氨基转移酶介导的细胞凋亡信号,为肿瘤治疗提供有效的治疗途径。
The identification of the fundamental role of apoptosis in the growth balance and normal homeostasis against cell proliferation led to the recognition of its loss contributing to tumorigenesis. The mechanistic significance of reinstating apoptosis signaling towards selective targeting of malignant cells heavily exploits the caspase family of death-inducing molecules as a powerful therapeutic platform for the development of potent anticancer strategies. Some apoptosis inhibitors induce caspase expression and activity in preclinical models and clinical trials by targeting both the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways and restoring the apoptotic capacity in human tumors. Furthermore, up-regulation of caspases emerges as a sensitizing mechanism for tumors exhibiting therapeutic resistance to radiation and adjuvant chemotherapy. This review provides a comprehensive discussion of the functional involvement of caspases in apoptosis control and the current understanding of reactivating caspase-mediated apoptosis signaling towards effective therapeutic modalities in cancer treatment.
