Abstract
Neural precursor cells-expressed developmentally down-regulated protein-8 (NEDD8) is one of the important members of the ubiquitin family, which plays an important role in maintaining cell stability, cell cycle regulation, signal transduction, transcription, and translation, DNA repair, and tumorigenesis through covalently bound substrates (also known as neddylation modification). In recent years, studies have found that the dysfunction of NEDD8 and its related enzymes is common in liver diseases, and is widely involved in the biological processes of hepatitis, liver fibrosis, proliferation, invasion, apoptosis and autophagy of liver cancer cells. This article focuses on the research progress of NEDD8 in liver diseases.
