B7H3 在胃肠道肿瘤中：在免疫调节与癌症进展中的作用：文献综述

B7-H3 (CD276), a member of the B7 immune checkpoint family, plays a critical role in modulating immune responses and has emerged as a promising target in cancer therapy. It is highly expressed in various malignancies, where it promotes tumor evasion from T cell surveillance and contributes to cancer progression, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance, showing a correlation with the poor prognosis of patients. Although its receptors were not fully identified, B7-H3 signaling involves key intracellular pathways, including JAK/STAT, NF- B, PI3K/Akt, and MAPK, driving processes crucial for supporting tumor growth such as cell proliferation, invasion, and apoptosis inhibition.

Beyond immune modulation, B7-H3 influences cancer cell metabolism, angiogenesis, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, further exacerbating tumor aggressiveness. The development of B7-H3-targeting therapies, including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, and CAR-T cells, offers promising avenues for treatment. This review provides an up-to-date summary of the B7H3 mechanisms of action, putative receptors, and ongoing clinical trials evaluating therapies targeting B7H3, focusing on the molecule's role in gastrointestinal tumors.
