Deskripsi

Tumors often develop resistance to radiotherapy. Here the authors show that irradiation leads to a CCR2-dependent infiltration by myeloid derived suppressor cells that promote radio-resistance through inhibition of adaptive immune responses and that the use of CCR2 antibodies in mice reduces such resistance.
