摘要
治疗抵抗是造成恶性肿瘤复发、远处转移并最终导致患者死亡的最直接原因。当前,亟需新的药物和方法来消除和抑制治疗抵抗的发生,以提高肿瘤患者预后。研究显示,信号传导和转录激活因子3(signal transducers and activators of transcription3,STAT3)的激活与许多肿瘤细胞的治疗抵抗密切相关,抑制STAT3激活可逆转肿瘤细胞对放化疗的抵抗,因此STAT3极有可能成为攻克恶性肿瘤的关键靶点。
Therapeutic resistance, the most important tumor igenic factor responsible for the cancer patients death, is the major cause leading to tumor relapse and metastasis, which poses a great difficulty in choosing therapeutic methods. Therefore, new treatment drugs/modalities are required tode feat treatment-resistant and improve the survival/outcome of tumor patients. Activation of signal transducers and activators of transcription3 (STAT3) has been found associated with initiation of therapeutic resistance and blockage of the activation can avoid the tumor therapeutic resistance. As a result, STAT3 protein has been considered as an ideal therapeutic target forover coming the resistance to cure cancer patients.
