程序性死亡因子1(programmed death 1,PD-1)、程序性死亡因子1配体(PD-L1)与肿瘤发生、发展密切相关,PD-1/PD-L1信号通路的激活有助于肿瘤免疫逃逸,而阻断该通路可以减少肿瘤对机体抗肿瘤免疫效应的抑制,更好地发挥人体自身的免疫系统...程序性死亡因子1(programmed death 1,PD-1)、程序性死亡因子1配体(PD-L1)与肿瘤发生、发展密切相关,PD-1/PD-L1信号通路的激活有助于肿瘤免疫逃逸,而阻断该通路可以减少肿瘤对机体抗肿瘤免疫效应的抑制,更好地发挥人体自身的免疫系统抵御肿瘤的能力,理论上说抗PD-1/PD-L1信号通路具有治疗各种类型肿瘤的能力。前期针对PD-1/PD-L1通路的免疫疗法在晚期恶性黑色素瘤以及非小细胞肺癌中已经获得了令人振奋的效果,故PD-1/PD-L1信号通路在原发性肝癌中的应用也值得期待。本文对PD-1/PD-L1分子信号通路、原发性肝癌中的表达、PD-1/PD-L1抑制剂在原发性肝癌治疗中的临床研究进行综述,探讨PD-1在肝癌治疗的临床应用前景和以后可能发展的方向。展开更多
