AB  - LOXL2, a copper-dependent amine oxidase, has emerged as a promising therapeutic
target in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Increased LOXL2 expression in HCC has been linked
with an aggressive phenotype and represents a poor prognostic factor. Here, we focus on the
mechanisms through which LOXL2 orchestrates multiple oncogenic functions in HCC development.
We performed a review of the current knowledge on the roles LOXL2 performs in the modulation of
the HCC tumor microenvironment, formation of premetastatic niches, and epithelial–mesenchymal
transition. We also highlighted the complex interplay between LOXL2 and hypoxia, angiogenesis,
and vasculogenic mimicry in HCC. At the end of the review, we summarize the current LOXL2
inhibitors and discuss their potential in HCC precision treatment.
