Myeloid antigen-presenting cell niches sustain antitumor T cells and license PD-1 blockade via CD28 costimulation
The mechanisms regulating exhaustion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and
responsiveness to PD-1 blockade remain partly unknown. In human ovarian cancer, we …

mTOR, metabolism, and the regulation of T‐cell differentiation and function
AT Waickman, JD Powell - Immunological reviews, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
