Abstract

Breast cancer anti-estrogen resistance-1 (p130Cas/BCAR1) is an adaptor protein of the cas(Cas) family. This protein regulates multiple complex pathways in different organs including bones, pancreas, and immune and cardiovascular systems. Although previous research well demonstrated the role of p130Cas/BCAR1 in different diseases especially cancers, a precise review study on the various effects of p130Cas/BCAR1 on cardiovascular diseases is missing. In this study, we reviewed mechanisms of action for p130Cas/BCAR1 impact, on cardiac embryonic development defects, hypertrophy and remodeling, pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH), and atherosclerosis. Also, we suggest feature direction for research and potential therapeutic implications. This study showed that p130Cas/BCAR1 can affect cardiovascular diseases in various mechanisms including actin stress fiber formation, attachment to focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and angiotensin II (Ang II), generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and growth factor signaling through amplifying receptor tyrosine kinase (RTKs). © 2024
