Mesothelin as a Signal Pathways and Epigenetic Target in Cancer Therapy.

Mesothelin (MSLN), a glycoprotein-based tumor antigen, is elevated in several malignancies and it is related to a poor prognosis, as it enhances tumor aggression, dissemination and chemotherapy resistance. MSLN plays a crucial role in epigenetic and signal pathway regulation and it can be an important biomarker. MSLN targeting is in particular, associated with CA125/MUC16, which offers the potential to improve lung, pancreatic, colon and ovarian cancer detection as well as therapeutic strategies. MSLNtargeted therapies have shown favorable results, such as CAR NK cells, 227Th conjugate and CAR-T cells, which target mesothelin. Significant advancements can be achieved with novel techniques, such as mesothelin-targeting BiTEs and simultaneous CAR-T cells. Immunotherapies targeting mesothelin have the potential to completely transform the way cancer is therapy in patients with limited options. To fully comprehend the mechanisms of MSLN, more investigation is required to explore its role in cancer for improved patient outcomes. The complex control, cellular functions and clinical significance of MSLN in the advancement of cancer are highlighted in this review.
