Huang-Jin-Shuang-Shen Decoction promotes CD8+ T-cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity by regulating chemokine CXCL10 in gastric cancer

Research on immunotherapy for gastric cancer is currently receiving significant attention, with particular emphasis on the role of CD8+ T cells in anti-tumor immune responses. In recent years, the importance of the chemokine CXCL10 in promoting anti-tumor immunity has been increasingly recognized because it plays a crucial role in recruiting CD8+ T cells to the tumor microenvironment. The Huang-Jin-Shuang-Shen (HJSS) Decoction, a Chinese medicine, has been used as an adjuvant drug for gastric cancer chemotherapy. Its mechanism of action may be related to the activation of anti-tumor immunity.
