Mutant KRAS Drives Immune Evasion by Sensitizing Cytotoxic T‐Cells to Activation‐Induced Cell Death in Colorectal Cancer
4 Jan 2023
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The roles of oncogenic KRAS in tumor immune evasion remain poorly understood. Here, mutant KRAS is identified as a key driver of tumor immune evasion in colorectal cancer (CRC). In human CRC specimens, a significant reduction in cytotoxic CD8 + T‐cell tumor infiltration is found in patients with mutant versus wild type KRAS. This phenomenon is confirmed by preclinical models of CRC, and further study...
