Deskripsi

Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) has been proposed as a target for cancer immunotherapy. Here the authors show that pharmacological inhibition of PP2A with a clinically-relevant inhibitor enhances response to immune checkpoint blockade in pre-clinical models of cancer, resulting in long lasting immunity.
