Glucocorticoids Unleash Immune-dependent Melanoma Control Through Inhibition Of The GARP/TGF Ξ² Axis | Cancer Research UK Manchester Institute
This study uncovers a surprising role for GCs in triggering CD8+ T cellβdependent tumour control through downregulation of GARP and thus TGF Ξ² signalling.
Exciting new research from our Cancer Inflammation and Immunity Group led by @santiagozelenay.bsky.social on the counterintuitive effects of steroids to enhance responses to immunotherapy in #melanoma
