Targeting tumor glycolysis would hit the main energy source of cancer. We show that natural killer (NK) cells pursue this strategy by employing high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein-a well-known proinflammatory cytokine-to specifically target glycolysis in cancer cells. This opens up new perspectives for cancer immunotherapy.
靶向肿瘤糖酵解将直击癌症的主要能量来源。我们发现,自然杀伤(NK)细胞通过利用高迁移率族蛋白B1(HMGB1)——一种众所周知的促炎细胞因子——来特异性靶向癌细胞中的糖酵解,从而采用了这一策略。这为癌症免疫治疗开辟了新的前景。
