Integrin-αV-mediated activation of TGF-β regulates anti-tumour CD8 T cell immunity and response to PD-1 blockade

Response to PD-1 checkpoint blockade is unpredictable in lung cancer patients. Here authors show in human lung and mouse tumour models that low or absent αV integrin expression leads to better tumour growth control by anti-PD-1 via reduced TGF-β activation and hence increased infiltration of anti-tu...
