摘要

Introduction: SOX2 is a transcription factor that is important in the development and maintenance of the stem cell state. Furthermore, SOX2 is associated with cancer progression because it promotes the migration, invasion, and proliferation of cancer cells. SOX2 is also expressed in cancer stem cells and appears to be involved in the resistance toward anticancer therapies. These features render SOX2 an attractive target for cancer therapy. Areas covered: In this review, we highlight the role of SOX2 in cancer and in the resistance toward anticancer therapies. We summarize recent studies dealing with SOX2 as a direct or indirect therapeutic target in cancer. Expert opinion: SOX2 is an attractive target in cancer therapy because of its role in cancer progression and therapy resistance. SOX2 is a transcription factor, hence direct targeting is difficult. Studies aimed at a functional depletion, for example by knock-down with siRNAs, are difficult to translate into clinical settings. Alternatively, the identification of SOX2 upstream or downstream regulators that are easier to target is of paramount importance.
