Breast cancer stem cells generate immune-suppressive T regulatory cells by secreting TGFβ to evade immune-elimination

Abstract Cancer stem cells (CSCs), being the primary contributors in tumor initiation, metastasis, and relapse, ought to have seminal roles in evasion of immune surveillance. Tumor-promoting CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ T-regulatory cells (Tregs) have been described to abolish host defense mechanisms by impeding...
