Prostaglandin D2(PGD2)is a biologically active substance with important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes.PGD2 exerts its biological functions mainly through prostaglandin D2 synthase(PGDS),which is closely related to inflammation and immune regulation.Recent studies have found that PGD2 and its synthase,PGDS,are able to directly inhibit tumor cell proliferation,induce apoptosis,suppress migration and invasion,and further regulate the tumor immune microenvironment to affect the immunotherapy of tumors,demonstrating good tumor therapeutic potential.In this paper,we review the biological properties of PGD2 and its synthase,focusing on its role in the immunotherapy of tumor models.We explore the immunotherapeutic efficacy of PGD2 and its synthase,and their roles in promoting immune cell infiltration in the tumor microenvironment,and discuss their potential as new targets for tumor therapy.

Objective To investigate the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) syndromes distribution rule of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) and its correlation with related clinical indexes.Methods The general condition,TCM four diagnostic methods,biochemical and CT results in 1950 cases of NAFLD in Chongqing City were investigated for analyzing the TCM syndromes distribution rule and its correlation with biochemistry and CT.Results In 1950 cases,the accumulation and binding of damp-heat,congestion of dampness turbidity,stagnation of liver-QI with spleen deficiency,intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis and yin deficiency of both liver and kidney accounted for 36.62 %,27.69 %,19.38 %,10.10 % and 6.21 % respectively;there was statistically significant difference in age among different TCM syndromes(P<0.05);the vin deficiency syndrome of both liver and kidney and intermin-gled phlegm and blood stasis in severe fatty liver were maximal;glutamic-pyruvic transaminase(ALT) and glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase(AST) level was higher in the accumulation and binding of damp-heat;the level of fasting plasma gluco se(FBG) was higher in the yin deficiency syndrome of both liver and kidney;the total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG) and FBG levels were lower in the stagnation of liver-QI with spleen deficiency,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion In NAFLD patients,the accumulation and binding of damp-heat distribution is maximal,the proportion of severe fatty liver with vin deficiency syndrome of both liver and kidney is higher.Different dialectical types may play an important role in the clinical indexes and disease development.
