Elevated tumor NOS2/COX2 promotes immunosuppressive phenotypes associated with poor survival in ER– breast cancer
15 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
Tumor immunosuppression affects survival and treatment efficacy. Tumor NOS2/COX2 coexpression strongly predicts poor outcome in estrogen receptor-negative (ER-) breast cancer by promoting metastasis, drug resistance, cancer stemness, and immune suppression. Herein, a spatially distinct NOS2/COX2 and CD3+CD8+PD1- T effector (TEff) cell landscape correlated with poor survival in ER- tumors. NOS2 was primarily...
