| Core Tip |
Digestive tract tumors remain a major global health burden with high morbidity and mortality. Perineural invasion (PNI), the infiltration of tumor cells along nerves, is a key determinant of tumor aggressiveness and poor outcome. This review systematically investigates the crosstalk between PNI and immune mechanisms in gastrointestinal cancers, with a focus on critical components, including the PD-L1/PD-1 axis, T cells, macrophages, and other immune checkpoints. It reveals mechanisms by which PNI reshapes the tumor immune microenvironment to promote metastasis, identify candidate immunotherapeutic targets, and provide a foundation for developing precision treatment strategies. |
