Deskripsi

Immune checkpoint blockade is showing promise in cancer immune therapy, but many solid tumours are resistant. Authors here identify a pathway in T cells that leads to increased activity of C-terminal Src kinase, a negative regulator of T cell activity, thus disabling tumour infiltrating T cells and causing immune therapy resistance.
