mTOR-dependent translation drives tumor infiltrating CD8+ effector and CD4+ Treg cells expansion
8 Nov 2021
Abstract excerpt
We performed a systematic analysis of the translation rate of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and the microenvironment inputs affecting it, both in humans and in mice. Measurement of puromycin incorporation, a proxy of protein synthesis, revealed an increase of translating CD4 + and CD8 + cells in tumors, compared to normal tissues. High translation levels are associated with phospho-S6 labeling downstream...
