Article Title: | FOXO3: A master switch for regulating tolerance and immunity in dendritic cells |
Abstract: | Recent findings demonstrate that dendritic cells in prostate tumors induce immune tolerance in tumor antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells. We propose that DC tolerogenicity can be regulated by expression of Foxo3; silencing Foxo3 expression enhances anti-tumor immune responses and renders FOXO3 a potential target for immunotherapy. |
