Abstract
Tumor-derived exosomes (TDEs) play critical roles in many aspects of cancer progression. There have been several advances in cancer immunotherapy in recent years. A major challenge, however, has been addressed to the role of TDEs in tumor cell immune escape through their influence on the antitumor immunity of natural killer (NK) cells, a key type of immune cell. In this review, we present our overview of the effects of different TDEs on NK cell activation and NK cell toxicity. Studies on mechanism suggest that TDEs mainly affect the immune response of NK cells by inhibiting activated receptors on the surface of NK cells and downregulating the NK recognition ligand MICA/B on the tumor cell surface. In addition, a summary was documented on how to restore the cytotoxicity of NK cells and improve the drug's ability to recognize tumor cells, and a detailed explanation was also provided on the mechanism of action of the drug.
肿瘤外泌体(TDEs)在癌症进展的许多方面都发挥着关键作用。近年来,癌症免疫疗法取得了一些进展。然而,TDEs通过影响自然杀伤细胞(NK)--一种关键的免疫细胞--的抗肿瘤免疫力,在肿瘤细胞免疫逃逸中的作用一直是一个重大挑战。在本综述中,我们概述了不同 TDEs 对 NK 细胞活化和 NK 细胞毒性的影响。机制研究表明,TDEs 主要通过抑制 NK 细胞表面的活化受体和下调肿瘤细胞表面的 NK 识别配体 MICA/B 来影响 NK 细胞的免疫反应。此外,还总结了如何恢复 NK 细胞的细胞毒性和提高药物识别肿瘤细胞的能力,并对药物的作用机制进行了详细说明。
期刊介绍:
Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology publishes papers which fall within the range of basic and applied physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology. The papers should illustrate new physiological or pharmacological mechanisms at the level of the cell membrane, single cells, tissues or organs. Clinical studies, that are of fundamental importance and have a direct bearing on the pathophysiology will also be considered. Letters related to articles published in The Journal with topics of general professional interest are welcome.
