Abstract EN
Autotaxin (ATX) is an extracellular lysophospholipase D (lysoPLD) released from normal cells and cancer cells.
Activity of ATX is detected in various biological fluids.
The lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is the main product of ATX.
LPA acting through specific G protein-coupled receptors (LPA1-LPA6) affects immunological response, normal development, and malignant tumors' formation and progression.
In this review, the impact of autotoxin on biology of melanoma cells and potential treatment is discussed.
