Abstract
- For twenty years, ion channels have been studied in cancer progression. Several information have been collected about their involvement in cancer cellular processes like cell proliferation, motility and their participation in tumour progression using in-vivo models. Tumour microenvironment is currently the focus of many researches and the highlighting of the relationship between cancer cells and surrounding elements, is expanding. One of the major physic-chemical parameter involved in tumour progression is the hypoxia conditions observed in solid cancer. Due to their position on the cell membrane, ion channels are good candidates to transduce or to be modulated by environmental modifications. Until now, few reports have been interested in the modification of ion channel activities or expression in this context, compared to other pathological situations such as ischemia reperfusion. The aim of our review is to summarize the current knowledge about the calcium and potassium channels properties in the context of hypoxia in tumours. This review could pave the way to orientate new studies around this exciting field to obtain new potential therapeutic approaches.
