Abstract

In recent years, immunotherapy has made remarkable progress in treating certain tumors and hematological malignancies. However, the efficacy of natural killer (NK) cells, which are an important subset of innate lymphocytes used in anticancer immunotherapy, remains limited. Hypoxia, a critical characteristic of the tumor microenvironment (TME), is involved in tumor development and resistance to radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. Moreover, hypoxia contributes to the impairment of NK cell function and may be a significant factor that limits their therapeutic effects. Targeted hypoxia therapy has emerged as a promising research area for enhancing the efficacy of NK cell therapy. Therefore, understanding how the hypoxic TME influences NK cell function is crucial for improving antitumor treatment outcomes.

缺氧的肿瘤微环境:自然杀伤细胞功能的破坏者
近年来,免疫疗法在治疗某些肿瘤和血液恶性肿瘤方面取得了显著进展。然而,自然杀伤(NK)细胞作为用于抗癌免疫疗法的先天性淋巴细胞的一个重要亚群,其疗效仍然有限。缺氧是肿瘤微环境(TME)的一个重要特征,它参与了肿瘤的发展以及对放疗、化疗和免疫疗法的抵抗。此外,缺氧会导致 NK 细胞功能受损,可能是限制其治疗效果的一个重要因素。有针对性的缺氧疗法已成为提高 NK 细胞疗效的一个前景广阔的研究领域。因此,了解缺氧TME如何影响NK细胞功能对于改善抗肿瘤治疗效果至关重要。
