T cell-GAM-glioma interactions promote NF1-associated LGG progression. Tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T lymphocytes (blue) are recruited to the tumor through glioma (green) secretion of Clc2/Clc12. T lymphocytes educate glioma-associated microglia (red) to promote microglial secretion of Ccl5, which promotes glioma growth. Illustration by Sigrid Knemeyer.
