LSD1 inhibition sustains T cell invigoration with a durable response to PD-1 blockade

Dynamic changes in chromatin landscape affect CD8+ T cell phenotype and function in chronic infections and cancer. Here the authors show that targeting the histone demethylase LSD1 increases the persistence of progenitor exhausted CD8+ T cells, improving response to immune checkpoint blockade in pre...

description Dynamic changes in chromatin landscape affect CD8+ T cell phenotype and function in chronic infections and cancer. Here the authors show that targeting the histone demethylase LSD1 increases the persistence of progenitor exhausted CD8+ T cells, improving response to immune checkpoint blockade in preclinical cancer models.
