A Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Axis Drives Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Promotes Cancer Progression

Cancer Immunology Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Axis-Driven Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Its Role in Promoting Cancer Progression Background In cancer, conventional dendritic cells (DCs) are key mediators of anti-tumor immunity. However, cancer has evolved mechanisms that render DCs ineffective in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and these...

A Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Axis Drives Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Promotes Cancer Progression

The Tumor Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Pathway Drives Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Promotes Cancer Progression In recent years, the critical role of dendritic cells (DCs) in antitumor immunity has been widely recognized. However, many cancers cause DC dysfunction through mechanisms that are not fully understood. In a newly published study ...
