Immunostimulatory effects of thermal ablation: Challenges and future prospects

This literature explores the immunostimulatory effects of thermal ablation in the tumor microenvironment, elucidating the mechanisms such as immunogenic cell death, tumor-specific antigens, and damage-associated molecular patterns. Furthermore, it outlines critical issues associated with thermal ablation-induced immunostimulatory challenges and offers insights into future research avenues and potential therapeutic strategies.
