uPAR Cancer Research Results

uPAR, Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
uPAR is a target for the treatment of cancer, because it is expressed at low levels in healthy tissues but at high levels in malignant tumours.
uPAR is typically overexpressed in breast cancer tissues relative to normal breast epithelium. • Prognosis:
– High uPAR levels correlate with increased invasiveness, higher grades, and an overall poorer prognosis.
• Function:
– uPAR contributes to tumor cell migration and invasion, supporting a protumor role.

uPAR is considered protumor because its overexpression facilitates extracellular matrix degradation, enhances cell migration/invasion, and supports signaling pathways that promote tumor progression.
RCC, Renal cell Carcinoma: Click to Expand ⟱
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the urinary system, accounting for 80–90% of kidney neoplasms.
The activation of the mTOR pathway has been found in RCC and is correlated with high grade and poor prognostic patient features (41,42).
