Immune escape of hepatic echinococcosis based on the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

PD-1 and PD-L1 together constitute the stimulus signaling pathway of adaptive immune response, which has been widely used in the research on the mechanism of tumor immune escape and tumor therapy. At the same time, its signaling pathway has been proved to be closely associated with the immune escape of hepatic echinococcosis. This article reviews the chemical structures of PD-1 and PD-L1, the mechanism of the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway, and the role of the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway in immune escape of hepatic echinococcosis, i.e., the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway is involved in immune escape of hepatic echinococcosis under three theories, so as to explore the immune escape of hepatic echinococcosis from a new perspective and provide a basis and ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic echinococcosis.
