Abstract
With the rapid development of immunological techniques in recent years, our understanding of immune senescence has gradually deepened, but the role of immune senescence in cancer biology remains incompletely elucidated. Understanding these mechanisms and interactions is crucial for the development of tumor biology. This review examines five key areas: the classification and main features of immune senescence, factors influencing immune cell senescence in cancer, the reciprocal causal cycle between immune senescence and malignancy, and the potential of immune senescence as a target for cancer immunotherapy.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Cancer Biology (YSCBI) is a specialized review journal that focuses on the field of molecular oncology. Its primary objective is to keep scientists up-to-date with the latest developments in this field.
The journal adopts a thematic approach, dedicating each issue to an important topic of interest to cancer biologists. These topics cover a range of research areas, including the underlying genetic and molecular causes of cellular transformation and cancer, as well as the molecular basis of potential therapies.
To ensure the highest quality and expertise, every issue is supervised by a guest editor or editors who are internationally recognized experts in the respective field. Each issue features approximately eight to twelve authoritative invited reviews that cover various aspects of the chosen subject area.
The ultimate goal of each issue of YSCBI is to offer a cohesive, easily comprehensible, and engaging overview of the selected topic. The journal strives to provide scientists with a coordinated and lively examination of the latest developments in the field of molecular oncology.
