Abstract:

The incidence of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) and its related mortality is increasing, becoming
the 2nd and fastest-growing cause of cancer related mortality worldwide. In particular, the rise of HCC
can be attributed to the cellular metabolic disturbances promoted by the epidemic of obesity and
the lack of markers for its early detection. With few treatment options and a 50% to 70% recurrence
rate after resection or loco-regional treatment, HCC has become a major and steadily increasing
global health challenge. This review focuses on the current knowledge related to the pathogenesis
of NASH-related HCC in order to provide a novel pathway for theoretical treatment options. For
instance, regulation of Src-phosphorylation by the α1-subunit of the Na/K-ATPase may initiate
protein interactions, beginning at the anchoring-Caveolin-1 in the plasma membrane, that promote
disturbances in the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. This apoptotic cascade is activated and regulated by
the mitochondria during energy distress, as often observed in NASH-related HCC. As part of this
pathway, the Smac/DIABLO-survivin signaling equilibrium may play a pivotal role in regulating the
pathogenic ‘apoptotic switch’ in NASH related malignancy. Additionally, we propose inhibition of
Src phosphorylation at the α1-Na/K-ATPase as a putative target for the treatment of HCC.
