研究概要

临床试验(2023-2025)显示出显著的生存获益,例如黑色素瘤(风险比[HR] 0.65,95% CI 0.48-0.87)和肺癌(HR 0.72,95% CI 0.55-0.94)的总生存期(OS)改善,同时化疗毒性降低。

中文摘要

β-葡聚糖是天然存在的多糖,来源于真菌、酵母、谷物和细菌,因其多方面的免疫调节、抗炎和直接抗肿瘤特性,已成为强效的癌症治疗药物。这些化合物与模式识别受体(PRRs)如 Dectin-1、Toll 样受体(TLRs)和补体受体 3(CR3)结合,激活巨噬细胞、自然杀伤(NK)细胞和树突状细胞,从而增强抗肿瘤免疫。β-葡聚糖抑制促炎细胞因子(如 TNF-α、IL-6)和肿瘤促进通路如 NF-κB,同时调节调节性 T 细胞(Tregs)并下调 PD-L1 以克服免疫逃逸。它们通过 Bax/Bcl-2 调控诱导凋亡,将细胞周期阻滞在 G1/S 或 G2/M 期,并通过靶向 VEGF 和 MMPs 抑制血管生成。临床试验(2023-2025)显示显著的生存获益,例如改善黑色素瘤的总生存期(OS)(风险比 [HR] 0.65,95% CI 0.48-0.87)和肺癌(HR 0.72,95% CI 0.55-0.94),同时降低化疗毒性。与 PD-1/PD-L1 抑制剂的协同作用增强免疫治疗疗效,特别是在免疫原性肿瘤中。先进的纳米递送系统,包括胶束和外泌体,改善生物利用度和肿瘤靶向性。然而,生物利用度可变、剂量不一致、副作用(如 10-15% 患者出现胃肠道不适,2-5% 出现过敏反应)以及不同肿瘤类型间疗效数据矛盾等挑战,需要进一步研究。本综述整合了 β-葡聚糖的作用机制、临床证据、递送创新和挑战,将其定位为精准肿瘤学中有前景的辅助治疗手段。

Beta-glucans, naturally occurring polysaccharides derived from fungi, yeasts, cereals, and bacteria, have emerged as potent cancer therapeutics due to their multifaceted immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and direct anti-tumor properties. These compounds engage pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as Dectin-1, Toll-like receptors (TLRs), and complement receptor 3 (CR3), activating macrophages, natural killer (NK) cells, and dendritic cells to enhance anti-tumor immunity. Beta-glucans suppress pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α, IL-6) and tumor-promoting pathways like NF-κB, while modulating T-regulatory cells (Tregs) and downregulating PD-L1 to overcome immune evasion. They induce apoptosis via Bax/Bcl-2 regulation, arrest cell cycles at G1/S or G2/M phases, and inhibit angiogenesis by targeting VEGF and MMPs. Clinical trials (2023-2025) demonstrate significant survival benefits, such as improved overall survival (OS) in melanoma (hazard ratio [HR] 0.65, 95% CI 0.48-0.87) and lung cancer (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.55-0.94), alongside reduced chemotherapy toxicity. Synergy with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors enhances immunotherapy efficacy, particularly in immunogenic tumors. Advanced nano-delivery systems, including micelles and exosomes, improve bioavailability and tumor targeting. However, challenges like variable bioavailability, dosing inconsistencies, side effects (e.g., gastrointestinal discomfort in 10-15% of patients, allergic reactions in 2-5%), and conflicting efficacy data across tumor types necessitate further research. This review consolidates beta-glucan mechanisms, clinical evidence, delivery innovations, and challenges, positioning them as promising adjuncts in precision oncology.
