Antigen cross-presentation in young tumor-bearing hosts promotes CD8 + T cell terminal differentiation
4 Feb 2022
Abstract excerpt
The immune system undergoes a progressive functional remodeling with age. Understanding how age bias shapes antitumor immunity is essential in designing effective immunotherapies, especially for pediatric patients. Here, we explore antitumor CD8 + T cell responses generated in young (prepubescent) and adult (presenescent) mice. Using an MHCI-deficient tumor model, we observed that tumor-reactive CD8 + T cells...
