Research progress of leptin and lung cancer microenvironment
Leptin is a cytokine hormone secreted by white and brown adipose tissue to participate in the processes of cell proliferation,differentiation,apoptosis,and cytokine secretion.The latest research confirms that leptin is closely correlated with the occurrence and development of lung cancer.Lepdin can regulate the microenvironment of lung cancer by regulating immune response and nerve endocrine.This article reviews the role and mechanism of leptin in the microenvironment of lung cancer,aiming to provide reference for basic re-search on lung cancer.
