The mitochondrial DNA constitution shaping T cell immunity in patients with rectal cancer at high risk of metastatic progression

2021-06-13

Abstract excerpt

A significant percentage of colorectal cancer patients proceeds to metastatic disease. We hypothesised that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms, generated by the high mtDNA mutation rate of energy-demanding clonal immune cell expansions and assessable in peripheral blood, reflect how efficiently systemic immunity impedes metastasis. We studied 44 rectal cancer patients from a population-based prospective bioma...
