摘要
大量研究已证实肿瘤干细胞是肿瘤耐药、复发和转移的根源.慢性炎症与肿瘤的发生和发展密切相关,肿瘤炎性微环境中的IL-6、IL-8、EGF等炎性因子和生长因子激活了肿瘤干细胞内NF-κB/Stat3信号通路,维持肿瘤干细胞的自我更新能力,从而促进肿瘤的生长和转移.深入研究肿瘤炎性微环境对肿瘤干细胞的调控机制,可以使我们找到潜在的治疗靶点,为攻克肿瘤带来新的思路和手段.
Abstract Cancer stem cells have been suggested to play key role in tumor relapse, drug-resistance and metastasis. Chronic inflammatory states have been associated with an increased risk of malignancy. Therefore, it is possible that cytokines associated with chronic inflammation, such as IL-6, IL-8 and EGF, regulate the self-renewal of cancer stem cells via NF-KB/ Stat3 pathways. In this review, we will discuss how these adaptive processes potentially become subverted to enhance the development and function of cancer stem ceils.
