| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n LRATD2, also known by its alternative symbol FAM84B, has emerged as an important oncogenic factor in multiple cancer types. Experimental studies show that LRATD2/FAM84B plays a dual role. On one hand, its protein contains proline‐rich domains that contribute to the regulation of anterograde vesicular trafficking, thereby influencing the efficient delivery of cargo proteins within the secretory pathway (1,2). On the other hand, genomic analyses have demonstrated that LRATD2 is frequently amplified and overexpressed in diverse malignancies – including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, breast cancer, glioma, and prostate cancer – where its elevated expression is linked to increased cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and overall tumor aggressiveness (3–7). Functional inhibition of LRATD2 in several cellular models resulted in marked suppression of tumor cell growth and a decrease in the activation of oncogenic signaling cascades such as the Akt/GSK-3β/β-catenin pathway, highlighting its contribution to cancer progression (4,8). In addition, genetic studies within the 8q24 susceptibility region have shown that LRATD2 is often co-amplified with the MYC oncogene and that specific variants in the LRATD2 locus are associated with increased cancer risk and more advanced disease stages (3,9–11). Finally, proteomic profiling in the context of targeted therapies also indicates that modulation of LRATD2 expression may contribute to therapeutic responses, suggesting that it represents a promising candidate for further evaluation both as a prognostic biomarker and as a potential therapeutic target (12).\n "}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n <small>\n (1)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (2)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "2"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (3)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (4)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "4"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (5)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "5"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (6)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "6"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (7)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "7"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (8)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "8"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (9)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "9"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (10)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "10"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (11)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "11"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "; (12)"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "12"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "</small>\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Yan Huang, Haidi Yin, Baiying Li, et al.
