Deskripsi
Ovarian cancer cells often metastasize to the peritoneal cavity, forming spheroid-like structures and promoting a highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Here, the authors show that the ubiquitin ligase UBR5 is required for ovarian cancer growth and metastasis, sustaining spheroid formation and the infiltration of immunosuppressive tumor associated macrophages.
