Tumor Microenvironment: No Effector T Cells without Dendritic Cells

Abstract

Successful antitumor immunity is thought to require T cell entry into tumors, though mechanisms regulating this process remain unclear. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Spranger et al. indicate that chemokines produced by intratumoral Batf3 dendritic cells are critical for effector T cell recruitment. The findings have implications for immunotherapy.
