Source:
Type:
CD4+ T cells are T lymphocytes that express T cell receptors (TCRs).
Majority of cancer immunotherapies focus on harnessing the anti-tumour CD8+ cytotoxic T cell response, the potential role of CD4+ ‘helper’ T cells has largely remained in the background. multifaceted role of CD4+ T cells in the anti-tumour immune response.
CD4+ T cells play a critical role in developing and sustaining effective anti-tumour immunity, even in cancer immunotherapies specifically designed to activate a CD8+ CTL response.
