Lysophosphatidic acids, cyclic phosphatidic acids and autotaxin as promising targets in therapies of cancer and other diseases Gendaszewska-Darmach EActa Biochim Pol 2008[]; 55 (2): 227-40Lysophospholipids have long been recognized as membrane phospholipid metabolites, but only recently lysophosphatidic acids (LPA) have been demonstrated to act on specific G protein-coupled receptors. The widespread expression of LPA receptors and coupling to several classes of G proteins allow LPA-dependent regulation of numerous processes, such as vascular development, neurogenesis, wound healing, immunity, and cancerogenesis. Lysophosphatidic acids have been found to induce many of the hallmarks of cancer including cellular processes such as proliferation, survival, migration, invasion, and neovascularization. Furthermore, autotaxin (ATX), the main enzyme converting lysophosphatidylcholine into LPA was identified as a tumor cell autocrine motility factor. On the other hand, cyclic phosphatidic acids (naturally occurring analogs of LPA generated by ATX) have anti-proliferative activity and inhibit tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Research achievements of the past decade suggest implementation of preclinical and clinical evaluation of LPA and its analogs, LPA receptors, as well as autotaxin as potential therapeutic targets.|Animals[MESH]|Cardiovascular Physiological Phenomena[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immune System/physiology[MESH]|Lysophospholipids/chemical synthesis/pharmacology/*physiology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Multienzyme Complexes/*physiology[MESH]|Neoplasms/etiology/*physiopathology/*therapy[MESH]|Neurons/physiology[MESH]|PPAR gamma/physiology[MESH]|Phosphatidic Acids/*physiology[MESH]|Phosphodiesterase I/*physiology[MESH]|Phosphoric Diester Hydrolases/physiology[MESH]|Pyrophosphatases/*physiology[MESH]|Receptors, Lysophosphatidic Acid/physiology[MESH]|Signal Transduction[MESH]|Wound Healing/physiology[MESH] |
