ABSTRACT=Metabolic reprogramming of cancer tissues has significantly higher metabolic activity than that of the surrounding tissues. Local infiltration of immunosuppressive cells also significantly increased, leading to an obvious weakening of tumor immunity. During the progression of cancer cells, immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment is formed around the tumor due to their metabolic reprogramming. In addition, it is the changes in metabolic patterns that make tumor cells resistant to certain drugs, impeding cancer treatment.This article reviews the mechanisms of immune escape caused by metabolic reprogramming, and aims to provide new ideas for clinical tumor immunotherapy combined with metabolic intervention for tumor treatment.
