Despite remarkable treatment progress, most patients with hepatocellular carcinoma respond poorly to anti-PD1 therapy (a type of immunotherapy). A deeper insight into the tolerance mechanisms to this therapy is urgently needed. Herein, we unravel a previously unexplored mechanism linking tumor progression, macrophage polarization, and anti-PD1 resistance, and offer an attractive novel target for anti-PD1 combination therapy, which may benefit patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.
