Abstract:The functional relevance of CD8+ T cell phenotypes in human cancer is not well established. In preclinical studies, murine CD8+ T cells exhibiting an exhausted-like phenotype have been described to have drastically decreased anticancer activity while non-exhausted TCF-1+ progenitor CD8+ T cells have been thought to be mainly responsible for driving protective antitumor responses. However, human data has mostly been correlative by nature. By establishing a novel autologous humanized mouse tumor model, we found … Show more
