Abstract
Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a rare and life-threatening lymphoproliferative disorder involving systemic inflammatory symptoms,polyclonal lymphoproliferation,cytopenia,and multiple organ dysfunction.Although interleukin-6-mediated cytokine storm is thought to be the key driver of iMCD,more than 50% of the patients fail to respond to the treatments targeting interleukin-6 or its receptors.This underscores the urgent need to identify other cytokines and pathogenic pathways that may underlie iMCD.Fortunately,recent years have witnessed notable research advances in the pathogenesis of iMCD.This article reviews the latest progress in this field,aiming to provide a theoretical foundation for further research and facilitate the optimization of treatment strategies to improve the prognosis of the patients.
期刊介绍：
Acta Academiae Medicinae Sinicae was founded in February 1979. It is a comprehensive medical academic journal published in China and abroad, supervised by the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.
The journal mainly reports the latest research results, work progress and dynamics in the fields of basic medicine, clinical medicine, pharmacy, preventive medicine, biomedicine, medical teaching and research, aiming to promote the exchange of medical information and improve the academic level of medicine. At present, the journal has been included in 10 famous foreign retrieval systems and their databases [Medline (PubMed online version), Elsevier, EMBASE, CA, WPRIM, ExtraMED, IC, JST, UPD and EBSCO-ASP]; and has been included in important domestic retrieval systems and databases [China Science Citation Database (Documentation and Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences), China Core Journals Overview (Peking University Library), China Science and Technology Paper Statistical Source Database (China Science and Technology Core Journals) (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information), China Science and Technology Journal Paper and Citation Database (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information)].
