Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> 4-1BB (CD137), a member of the TNF receptor superfamily, is a critical co-stimulatory receptor for CD8⁺ T cell activation and regulatory T cell (Treg) expansion. While its ligand 4-1BBL is typically expressed by professional antigen-presenting cells, several carcinomas also express 4-1BBL, though its function in the tumor microenvironment remains poorly defined. <h4>Methods</...
