Unleashing the potential of CD39-targeted cancer therapy: Breaking new ground and future prospects
Abstract
The review article titled CD39 Transforming Cancer Therapy by Modulating Tumor Microenvironment published in June 2024 in Cancer Letters provides a comprehensive overview of CD39's multifaceted roles in cancer, particularly its influence on immunoregulation, angiogenesis, and metabolic reprogramming within the tumor microenvironment (TME). This commentary builds on that foundation by incorporating recent advancements in CD39 research, highlighting unresolved issues, and proposing future research directions. We delve into the therapeutic potential of targeting CD39, addressing clinical translation challenges, and exploring the integration of CD39-based strategies into precision oncology.
