Immunologic and immunogenomic aspects of tumor progression.
Immunologic and immunogenomic aspects of tumor progression. Semin Cancer Biol. 2019 Aug 13;: Authors: Ladányi A, Tímár J Abstract Tumor progression to metastatic disease is characterized by continuous genetic alterations due to instability of the genome. Immune sensitivity was found to be linked to tumor mutational burden (TMB) and the resulting amount of neoantigens. However, APOBEC activity resulting in increase in TMB causes immune evasion. On the...
