It has been considered a potential and promising molecular marker for the early diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Cholangiocarcinoma and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma share genetic, histological, and pathophysiological similarities due to the shared embryonic origin of the bile duct and pancreas. These cancers share numerous clinicopathological characteristics, including growth pattern, poor response to conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and poor prognosis. This review focuses on the role of integrin Alpha v Beta 6 in cancer progression. It addition, it reviews how the marker can be used in molecular imaging and therapeutic targets. We propose further research explorations and questions that need to be addressed. We conclude that integrin Alpha v Beta 6 may serve as a potential biomarker for cancer disease progression and prognosis.  \nKeywords  \nintegrin αvβ6, cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, imaging, therapeutic target, biomarker  \nAbbreviations  \nARF6, ADP ribosylation factor 6; BRCAm, BRCA1/2 mutations; BTC, Biliary tract cancer; CA19-9, Carbohydrate antigen 19-9; CAR-T, Chimeric antigen receptor T-Cell; CCA, Cholangiocarcinoma; CEA, Carcino-embryonic antigen; CK7, Cytokeratin 7; CK19, Cytokeratin 19; CTGF, Connective tissue growth factor; CTLA-4, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4; DCs, Dendritic cells; DDR, DNA damage repair; EGFR, Epidermal growth factor receptor; EMT, Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition; Eps8, Epidermal growth factor receptor pathway substrate 8; ERK, Extracellular regulated protein kinases; FGFR, fibroblast growth factor receptor; FLR, Future liver remnant; FOSL1, Fos-like antigen-1; HCC, Hepatocellular carcinoma; HCCA, Hilarcholangiocarcinoma; HER2, Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2; (HMG)-CoA, Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl; ICC, Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma; ICI, immune checkpoint inhibitor; IDH, Isocitrate dehydrogenase; ITGB6, Integrin β6; LT, Liver transplanation; MAPK, Mitogen-activated protein kinase; MMP-9, Matrix metalloprotein-9; MMR, Mismatch repair; MSI, instable microsatellite; MUC4, Mucin genes 4; NIRF, near-infrared fluorescence imaging; OS, Overall survival; PanIN, pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia; PD-1, Programmed cell death 1; PDAC, Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; PD-L1, Programmed cell death ligand 1; PDT, Photodynamic therapy; PET, Positron emission tomography; PHC, Perhilarcholangiocarcinoma; PODXL2, Podocalyxin like 2; PSCA, Prostate stem cell antigen; PT, Phototherapy; RAC1, Ras-related C3  \n1 Zhujiang Hospital, The Second School of Clinical Medicine, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China  \n2 First Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China  \n3 Guangdong Provincial Clinical and Engineering Technology Center of Digital Medicine, Guangzhou, China  \nCorresponding Author:  \nNing Zeng, First Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510280, China.  \nEmail: [chen_ning16@foxmail.com](chen_ning16@foxmail.com)  \nCreative Commons Non Commercial CC BY-NC: This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Att","cbCaiexB3CfCxlhI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiexB3CfCxlhI","pdf",823301,17,"English","# Abstract\n# Keywords\n# Abbreviations\n# Introduction","[{\"question\":\"What is Integrin Alpha v Beta 6, and why is it important in cancer?\",\"answer\":\"Integrin Alpha v Beta 6 is expressed mainly in solid epithelial tumors.
