Mutant p53 drives an immune cold tumor immune microenvironment in oral squamous cell carcinoma

Oral squamous cell carcinoma models are presented with defined Trp53 mutations associated with immune checkpoint inhibitor responsiveness, e.g. T122N amino acid change of Tp53 promotes a cold TME enriched with immunosuppressive M2 macrophages resistant to ICI therapy.
