Abstract

Little is known about lung precancer progression. Recently, Zhu et al. explored the early immunologic landscape of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) precursors and identified T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) as a putative immune checkpoint target for precancer interception. TIM-3 blockade in mice harboring premalignant lesions delayed progression to invasive adenocarcinoma, suggesting potential clinical utility in high-risk individuals detected through screening.

靶向TIM-3阻止肺癌前期进展。

我们对肺癌前期进展知之甚少。最近，Zhu等人探索了肺腺癌（LUAD）前体的早期免疫景观，并确定T细胞免疫球蛋白和粘蛋白结构域3 （TIM-3）是推测的癌前阻断的免疫检查点靶点。TIM-3阻断在患有癌前病变的小鼠中延缓了向侵袭性腺癌的进展，这表明通过筛查检测到的高风险个体具有潜在的临床应用价值。
