Abstract excerpt
Evidence from clinical trials suggests that CXCR4 antagonists enhance immunotherapy effectiveness in several cancers. However, the specific mechanisms through which CXCR4 contributes to immune cell phenotypes are not fully understood. Here, we employed single-cell transcriptomic analysis and identified CXCR4 as a marker gene in T cells, with CD8+PD-1high exhausted T (Tex) cells exhibiting high CXCR4 expression....
