Abstract
Centrosome abnormalities are a distinguishing feature of cancer and play a role in the aging process. Cancer cells may evade the immune system by activating immune checkpoints, altering their surrounding microenvironment, abnormalities in antigen presentation and recognition, and metabolic reprogramming to inhibit T-cell activity, allowing cancer cells to survive and spread within the host. When the centrosomes are abnormally shaped or numbered, mitotic errors can occur, cellular senescence occurs, cell death occurs, genomic instability occurs, and aneuploidy forms, resulting in diseases such as cancer. The present study is exploring the strategy of research progress in which centrosome abnormalities contribute to the aging process in various different ways as well as fuel immune escape from cancer cells, providing a new direction 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.
