TIM4 expression by dendritic cells mediates uptake of tumor-associated antigens and anti-tumor responses

Acquisition of dying tumor cell-associated antigens is an essential step for the initiation of anti-tumor immune response by conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1). Here the authors show that the loss of TIM4 expression in lung tumor associated cDC1 is associated with less efficient uptake of ce...
