Metabolic Singularities in Microsatellite-Stable Colorectal Cancer: Identifying Key Players in Immunosuppression to Improve the Immunotherapy Response.

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
Although immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy is currently the standard of care in microsatellite-unstable (MSI) metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC), ICI therapy, alone or in combination with other therapies, is not a treatment approach in microsatellite-stable (MSS) CRC, which is present in 95% of patients. In this review, we focus on metabolic singularities-at the transcriptomic (either bulk or single cell), proteomic, and post-translational modification levels-that induce immunosuppression in cancer and specifically in MSS CRC. First, we evaluate the current efficacy of ICIs in limited and metastatic disease in MSS CRC. Second, we discuss the latest findings on the potential biomarkers for evaluating ICI efficacy in MSS CRC using strict REMARK criteria. Third, we review the current evidence on metabolic patterns in CRC tumors and immune cell metabolism to advance our understanding of metabolic crosstalk and to pave the way for the development of combination strategies to enhance ICI efficacy.
