Abstract
Lysophosphatidate (LPA) is emerging as a potent mediator of cancer progression in the tumor microenvironment. Strategies for targeting LPA signaling have recently entered clinical trials for fibrosis. These therapies have potential to improve the efficacies of existing chemotherapies and radiotherapy by attenuating chronic inflammation, irrespective of diverse mutations within cancer cells.Entities:
