How Does the Tumor Microenvironment Affect Immune Surveillance?


The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex milieu that can significantly influence immune surveillance. It often contains immunosuppressive cells, such as regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, which can inhibit effective immune responses. Additionally, the TME can alter the expression of cytokines and chemokines, further modulating immune cell activity.
