摘要
在这篇《2023 年亮点》系列文章中,我们将讨论各种因素如何影响自然杀伤(NK)细胞对抗肿瘤的能力。例如,肿瘤细胞可以通过减少表面突起或通过血小板增加HLA-E的表达来阻碍NK细胞的功能。与女性相比,男性 NK 细胞中较低的 UTX 蛋白水平也会降低其细胞毒性。幸运的是,最近的治疗方法取得了进展,包括开发出了肿瘤微环境中 NK 细胞异质性的综合图谱,以及一种有望增强 NK 细胞抗肿瘤功能的三特异性吸引分子。
Highlight of 2023: From fundamental studies to clinical trials, the importance of NK cells against cancer
In this article for the Highlights of 2023 Series, we discuss how various factors affect the ability of natural killer (NK) cells to fight tumors. For instance, tumor cells can hinder NK cell function by reducing surface protrusions or increasing HLA-E expression via platelets. Lower UTX protein levels in male NK cells also decrease their cytotoxicity compared with females. Fortunately, recent advancements in therapeutic approaches have emerged, including the development of a comprehensive atlas of NK cell heterogeneity within the tumor microenvironment, as well as a trispecific engager molecule that has shown promise in enhancing the anti-tumor functions of NK cells.
期刊介绍:
The Australasian Society for Immunology Incorporated (ASI) was created by the amalgamation in 1991 of the Australian Society for Immunology, formed in 1970, and the New Zealand Society for Immunology, formed in 1975. The aim of the Society is to encourage and support the discipline of immunology in the Australasian region. It is a broadly based Society, embracing clinical and experimental, cellular and molecular immunology in humans and animals. The Society provides a network for the exchange of information and for collaboration within Australia, New Zealand and overseas. ASI members have been prominent in advancing biological and medical research worldwide. We seek to encourage the study of immunology in Australia and New Zealand and are active in introducing young scientists to the discipline.
