【Abstract】ObjectiveTo review the relationship between T helper cell 1/T helper cell 2 (Th1/Th2) shift and tumor recurrence.
MethodsLiteratures on Th1/Th2 shift and tumor recurrence were collected and reviewed.
ResultsTh1/Th2 shift can be detected in the host after therapy of the tumor. Tumor cells escape from host immune surveillance by altering Th1/Th2, which could lead to tumor recurrence.
ConclusionTh1/Th2 shift is related to tumor recurrence after therapy. Impelling the reverse of Th2 to Th1 and renewing the balance of T helper cells come out to be a new way for tumor therapy.
