Due to its significant impact on prognosis across multiple cancer types, RUNX2 has garnered widespread attention as a potential biomarker for cancer. By interacting with core-binding factor β (CBFβ), RUNX2 enhances the regulation of target genes, promoting cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. RUNX2 also interacts with the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, activating key pathways involved in tumor progression. Inhibiting RUNX2 expression and function has demonstrated potential in suppressing tumor growth and migration, as well as inducing apoptosis in cancer cells, making it a meaningful therapeutic target in cancer treatment. Recent studies have also revealed that RUNX2 influences the tumor microenvironment and chemotherapy resistance.
