Activation of Anti-tumor Immune Response by Ablation of HCC with Nanosecond Pulsed Electric Field

摘要

Locoregional therapy is playing an increasingly important role in the non-surgical management of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The novel technique of non-thermal electric ablation by nanosecond pulsed electric field has been recognized as a potential locoregional methodology for indicated HCC. This manuscript explores the most recent studies to indicate its unique anti-tumor immune response. The possible immune mechanism, termed as nano-pulse stimulation, was also analyzed.Citation of this article: Xu X, Chen Y, Zhang R, Miao X, Chen X.
