Primary liver cancer（PLC） has the features of insidious onset and difficulties in early diagnosis, with limited and ineffective therapeutic options. Chimeric antigen receptor（CAR） T-cell therapy is a genetically modified T-cell therapy that recognizes tumor-specific antigens and activates T cells to exert a tumor-killing effect. CAR T-cell therapy has made great progress in the treatment of hematological tumors and has achieved a good clinical effect in the field of solid tumors in recent years, and although CAR T-cell therapy has developed from the first to the fifth generation, there are still many challenges in the field of solid tumors. This article comprehensively reviews the mechanisms of CAR T-cell therapy for PLC and related research advances, including the main targets such as GPC3, AFP, MUC1, and NKG2D in CAR T-cell therapy for PLC, CAR T-cell therapy for PLC and oncolytic virus, and combined treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors, as well as the advances in the biological, preclinical, and clinical studies on these targets and treatment modalities and the challenges and solutions for CAR T-cell therapy in the treatment of PLC, so as to provide a reference for the future clinical development of CAR T-cell therapy in liver cancer.

Bile acid metabolism, intestinal flora and bile acid receptor regulation pathways are all involved in the whole process of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The liver tissue of HCC mouse model, the plasma and feces of HCC patients have certain bile acids such as The levels of glycocholic acid, taurocholic acid, taurochenodeoxycholic acid, etc. are significantly increased; bile acid metabolism and immune microenvironment caused by the imbalance of the abundance of intestinal bile salt hydrolyzing bacteria and Clostridium spp The changes in HCC will also promote the occurrence of HCC; in addition, bile acid receptors such as farnesoid X receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 1, pregnane X receptor, constitutive androstane receptor and sphingosine-1- Various receptors such as phosphoreceptor 2 have also been confirmed to participate in the regulation of the occurrence and development of HCC through a variety of ways. Each link of bile acid metabolism plays a different role in the process of HCC, and the system interprets the interactions between them. It helps to deepen the understanding of the pathogenesis of HCC and develop biological targets for early diagnosis, prognosis prediction and precise treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
