TGFβ suppresses CD8+ T cell expression of CXCR3 and tumor trafficking

TGFβ has a role in cancer immunosuppression but the exact mechanisms haven’t been fully elucidated. Here, using mouse models deficient in TGFβ-signaling, the authors show that loss of ALK5 in CD8 + T cells enhances their tumour trafficking and cytotoxicity suggesting that ALK5 inhibitors may have cl...
