摘 要:Cholangiocarcinoma(CCA)comprises of extra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma cancers as a result of inflammation of epithelium cell lining of the bile *** incidence rate is increasing dramatically worldwide with highest rates in Eastern and South Asian *** risk factors involve chronic damage and inflammation of bile duct epithelium from primary sclerosing cholangitis,chronic hepatitis virus infection,gallstones and liver fluke *** genetic variants have also been identified and as CCA develops on the background of biliary inflammation,diverse range of molecular mechanisms are involved in its *** these,the Notch signalling pathway acts as a major driver of cholangiocarcinogenesis and its components(receptors,ligands and downstream signalling molecules)represent a promising therapeutic ***-Secretase Inhibitors have been recognized in inhibiting the Notch pathway efficiently.A comprehensive knowledge of the molecular pathways activated by the Notch signalling cascade as well as its functional crosstalk with other signalling pathways provide better approach in developing innovative therapies against CCA.
