Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is a cytokine that has been known since long in immunology, mainly regarding its effects on T-cells and B-cells. IL-7 has been demonstrated to be necessary for both B-cell and T-cell proliferation and lack of IL-7 causes immature immune cell arrest. Interestingly, in recent years, certain studies have strongly suggested that the role of IL-7 is far beyond the field of immunology, it might have direct or indirect effect on cancer. This review aims to summarize the role of IL-7 in immunity and its role in the pathogenesis of neoplasia.
白细胞介素-7（IL-7）是一种在免疫学领域早已为人所知的细胞因子，主要涉及其对T细胞和B细胞的作用。IL-7已被证明对B细胞和T细胞的增殖都是必需的，缺乏IL-7会导致未成熟免疫细胞停滞。有趣的是，近年来，某些研究强烈表明，IL-7的作用远远超出了免疫学领域，它可能对癌症有直接或间接影响。这篇综述旨在总结IL-7在免疫中的作用及其在肿瘤发生机制中的作用。
