Delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3)

Target
DLL3
Molecular classification
Notch ligand
01

Overview

Delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) is a Notch ligand involved in Notch signaling. Unlike other Notch ligands, DLL3 primarily acts as an inhibitor of Notch signaling. It is a therapeutic target in cancers with high DLL3 expression, particularly small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and other neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs).
