SnapShot: Cancer immunoediting

Abstract

In the tumor microenvironment, immune cells and tumor cells interact in a process called cancer immunoediting, giving rise to changes in gene expression, metabolism, mutational burden, and cellularity in the tumor. This SnapShot compares endogenous versus therapy-induced cancer immunoediting and outlines the molecular and cellular characteristics of interactions that result in complete tumor regression versus tumor escape and progression.
