Deskripsi

Tumor extracellular matrix has been associated with cancer progression, therapy resistance and immune suppression. Here, the authors show that collagen generates resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy by upregulating LAIR1 expression and downstream signaling, leading to increased CD8+ T cell exhaustion.
