Deletion of SNX9 alleviates CD8 T cell exhaustion for effective cellular cancer immunotherapy

The efficacy of T-cell-based cancer immunotherapies can be compromised by T cell exhaustion. Here the authors develop a human ex vivo exhaustion model and, based on a CRISPR-Cas9 screen, identify SNX9 as a regulator of T cell exhaustion, showing that SNX9 knockout is associated with improved T cell...
