Brief Summary: The investigators have demonstrated the crucial role of the liver-lung axis in the distant metastasis of NPC Furthermore the investigators have identified a potential therapeutic approach to improve outcomes in NPC patients by identifying those most suitable for anticoagulant therapy Further the combination of anticoagulant therapy and anti-IL6R therapy has shown promising results in enhancing the prognosis of NPC patients These findings highlight the significance of targeting the liver-lung axis and utilizing personalized treatment strategies for NPC
Detailed Description: Distant metastasis accounts for nasopharyngeal carcinoma NPC-related mortalities Recently extracellular vesicles EVs have been widely explored as key mediators of bidirectional tumor-host cell interactions by mediating pre-metastatic niche PMN formation However considering the complexity of the human body multiple organ studies of tumor metastasis remain poorly understood Here the investigators have demonstrated the crucial role of the liver-lung axis in the distant metastasis of NPC The investigators demonstrated mechanistically that hepatocellular derived EVs can be specifically taken up by the lung to form a hypercoagulable pre-metastatic microenvironment associated with IL6Furthermore the investigators have identified a potential therapeutic approach to improve outcomes in NPC patients by identifying those most suitable for anticoagulant therapy Further the combination of anticoagulant therapy and anti-IL6R therapy has shown promising results in enhancing the prognosis of NPC patients These findings highlight the significance of targeting the liver-lung axis and utilizing personalized treatment strategies for NPC
