ILC3 plasticity in microbiome-mediated tumor progression and immunotherapy

Lei Shen et al. Cancer Cell. .

Abstract

The precise role of intestinal ILC3s in cancer remains largely unknown. Published in Cell, Goc et al. describe ILC3 function and plasticity in tumors. ILC3s may lose their identity and thus become either ILC1s or exhausting-ILC3s, which could in turn reshape the gut microbiome for colorectal cancer progression and immunotherapy resistance.
