Regulatory T cells protect damaged tissues but can undermine the effects of cancer treatments, including radiotherapy (RTx). Intratumoral immunostimulatory dendritic cells (type 1 conventional dendritic cells) respond to RTx with the production of regulatory T cell-attracting MDC/CCL22, undermining RTx effects. That effect can be reversed by EGFR-targeted IFNα, highlighting cDC1 plasticity and relevance as therapeutic targets. See related article by Bugno et al., p. 4450.
调节性 T 细胞可保护受损组织,但也会削弱癌症治疗的效果,包括放疗(RTx)。肿瘤内免疫刺激树突状细胞(1 型传统树突状细胞)对 RTx 的反应是产生吸引调节性 T 细胞的 MDC/CCL22,从而削弱 RTx 的效果。这种效应可以被 EGFR 靶向 IFNα逆转,突出了 cDC1 的可塑性和作为治疗靶点的相关性。见 Bugno 等人的相关文章,第 4450 页。
