Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine technology, and in particular relates to a reagent for inhibiting Acetyl-CoA or acetylase GCN5 and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lung cancer has an extremely high incidence in my country and is also the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Non-small cell lung cancer is the main type of lung cancer, accounting for about 80%-85% of the total number of patients. At present, the clinical treatment for patients with stage I-II NS CLC is mainly surgical treatment; for patients with locally advanced disease that cannot be resected, chemoradiotherapy combined with immunotherapy defines a new treatment standard. Although there are currently a variety of immunotherapy methods, immunotherapy is not perfect, its response rate is limited, and it can cause organ-specific inflammatory side effects and even multiple organ failure. Therefore, new therapeutic targets and treatment options are still urgently needed to be discovered.

[0003] Tumor immunotherapy is based on the presence of immune cells in the tumor tissue microenvironment. The tumor microenvironment is a complex integrated system mainly composed of immune cells, tumor-associated fibroblasts, nearby stromal tissue, microvessels, and various cytokines and chemokines to support tumor growth. Tumors occur under conditions of immunosuppression or exhaustion, which means that the function of immune cells in the TME is impaired. Studies have found that immune cells infiltrating tumor tissues can have both anti-tumor and pro-tumor effects. Immune cells in the TME, including macrophages, myeloid-derived suppressor cells, natural killer cells, and adaptive immune cells, may help form an immunosuppressive environment to protect tumor cells from damage. For example, CD8 + The TIL effector function is completely or partially lost, presenting a state of exhaustion, and the disability of T cells will eventually lead to immune escape.

[0004] Therefore, based on the interaction between tumor stem cells and T cells in the tumor microenvironment, we explored the role and mechanism of Acetyl-CoA in CSCs or related acetyltransferases in T cells on Trm cell differentiation; at the same time, we targeted Acetyl-CoA or related acetyltransferases to explore their clinical translational value in the treatment of NSCLC and provide new technologies for the treatment of NSCLC.
