Large scale analysis of smoking-induced changes in the tumor immune microenvironment
2020-03-08
Abstract excerpt
Tobacco smoke is a known carcinogen, mostly due to its genotoxicity, but its effects on the host immune system are also playing an important role. Here, we leveraged recent results on the immune landscape of cancer based on The Cancer Genomic Atlas (TCGA) data analysis and compared the proportions of major classes of tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) between smokers and never smokers in ten TCGA cancer types...
