Abstract: Y-box binding protein 1 (YB-1) is a member of the family of DNA-and-RNA-binding proteins, YB-1 participates in a wide variety of DNA/RNA-dependent events, including DNA reparation, pre-mRNA transcription and splicing, regulation of translation, cell proliferation and malignant cell transformation. Studies have demonstraed that abnormal expression of YB-1 has a significant effect on tumorigenesis. Nowadays, YB-1 as targets for cancer therapy has become a hot spot

Key words: YB-1, proliferation, tumor metastasis, apoptosis and multidrug resistance, oncotherapy
