IFNγ-induced stem-like state of cancer cells as a driver of metastatic progression following immunotherapy
1 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Despite the remarkable success of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy, most cancer patients still do not respond. We now find that immunotherapy can induce stem-like properties in tumors. Using mouse models of breast cancer, we observe that cancer stem cells (CSCs) show not only enhanced resistance to T cell cytotoxicity, but that interferon gamma (IFNγ) produced by activated T cells directly converts...
