摘要
人们普遍认为，肿瘤浸润免疫细胞在促进或抑制肿瘤生长方面发挥着重要作用。最近，肿瘤微环境中的肿瘤浸润 B 细胞越来越受到关注。然而，B 细胞在非小细胞肺癌中的作用在很大程度上仍不为人所知。通过回顾最近的研究，我们在此描述了 B 淋巴细胞在非小细胞肺癌中的分布、表型和异质性，介绍了它们的功能，并讨论了不同 B 细胞亚型的预后意义以及针对 TIL-Bs 的潜在治疗策略。最后，综述强调了未来研究的必要性，以进一步阐明它们在肿瘤微环境中的确切功能。
Tumor-infiltrating B cells in non-small cell lung cancer: current insights and future directions.
Tumor-infiltrating immune cells have been widely recognized as playing an important role in the promotion or inhibition of tumor growth. Recently there has been increasing attention on tumor-infiltrating B cells in the tumor microenvironment. However, the role of B cells in non-small cell lung cancer remains largely unknown. Reviewing recent studies, here we describe the distribution, phenotype, and heterogeneity of B lymphocytes in the non-small cell lung cancer, present their functions and discuss the prognostic significance of the different B-cell subtypes as well as potential therapeutic strategies targeting TIL-Bs. Finally, the review highlights the need for future research to further elucidate their precise function in the tumor microenvironment.
期刊介绍：
Cancer Cell International publishes articles on all aspects of cancer cell biology, originating largely from, but not limited to, work using cell culture techniques.
The journal focuses on novel cancer studies reporting data from biological experiments performed on cells grown in vitro, in two- or three-dimensional systems, and/or in vivo (animal experiments). These types of experiments have provided crucial data in many fields, from cell proliferation and transformation, to epithelial-mesenchymal interaction, to apoptosis, and host immune response to tumors.
Cancer Cell International also considers articles that focus on novel technologies or novel pathways in molecular analysis and on epidemiological studies that may affect patient care, as well as articles reporting translational cancer research studies where in vitro discoveries are bridged to the clinic. As such, the journal is interested in laboratory and animal studies reporting on novel biomarkers of tumor progression and response to therapy and on their applicability to human cancers.
