Abstract excerpt
The establishment of tumor escape mutants, which can be driven by innate and/or adaptive immune effector cells, presents a significant obstacle in the development of successful tumor immunotherapies. Our study documents that tumors growing within an immune-privileged site within the eye develop a tumor escape phenotype in the absence of selective T cell pressure. P815 tumor cells that are recovered from...
