摘要:
克服癌症免疫治疗的耐药性具有挑战性,部分原因是肿瘤相关巨噬细胞 (TAM) 共表达 T 细胞免疫球蛋白和粘蛋白结构域 3 (TIM3) 以及 T 细胞激活的 V 结构域免疫球蛋白抑制因子 (VISTA)具有稀疏 T 细胞浸润的肿瘤微环境 (TME)。在最近的一篇文章中,Vanmeerbeek 等人。发现在 IL-4 支持的 TAM 上阻断 TIM3 或 VISTA,与紫杉醇 (PTX) 结合,可以重新编程 TAM 以攻击癌细胞,突出了一种潜在的新治疗策略。版权所有 © 2024 作者。由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Overcoming resistance to immunotherapy in cancer is challenging due, in part, to tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) co-expressing T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing 3 (TIM3) and V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) in tumor microenvironments (TME) with sparse T cell infiltration. In a recent article, Vanmeerbeek et al. found that blocking TIM3 or VISTA on IL-4-supported TAMs, in combination with paclitaxel (PTX), reprogrammed TAMs to attack cancer cells, highlighting a potential new therapeutic strategy.Copyright © 2024 The Author(s).
