Abstract
After RFA treatment in patients with liver cancer, the expression of SLC7A11/xCT and the proportion of DCs in the TME were significantly increased. SLC7A11/xCT is a poor prognostic marker for liver cancer and is mainly expressed in DCs in the TME. Targeting xCT in DCs combined with RFA significantly enhances anti-tumor immunity, suppressing tumor growth and offering a promising strategy for improved therapeutic outcomes in liver cancer.
